I was thinking black too. I think white would look boss, but would be a major pain in the a$$ to keep clean.
or, powdercoat them and be done once and for all.

Black caliper, white caliper bracket and white lincoln logo on the caliper
Yes. This is the way I would go.
How do you guys make the emblems to put on the calipers?
Here's just a thread I found with a guy who has the emblems

Can't remember who else has them.
Maybe these? Or would they come off due to heat?

I think that's what most have done. Paint the caliper then put the decal on and clear over it

Or you could have a sticker made with the Lincoln star cut out of it, stick it on the caliper and spray paint it with the white caliper paint or hi-temp header paint, then remove it and clear coat. I used header paint on my calipers and mounts and it is holding up great after 1+ year. Its cheaper too.
Your welcome
Looking forward to see the final product, Ive been wanting to do this for a while myself, just not sure what color scheme I would go with.
I like the whole red idea with maybe a black star but I already have red calipers on my Celica so that's out.
what center console do you have? If you have the "ninja-style" you can always upgrade that.
Exhaust? tips? Home-depot-lip ( I know its not the greatest but until you get the lse bumper it's a good alternative).
I've heard of this ninja console, but never quite understood what it is lol
Should be getting an x-pipe from the gf for xmas so hopefully the exhaust will be done in the spring as well. I'm torn on the dual or quad tips though, both look sexy as hell.
This is what I have:

I know it is close to the color of the calipers, but I think maybe a gunmetal with a color matched lincoln star would look sick for your calipers!
Nice I forgot you have an 02 mine is 00 so yea I had to upgrade lol, I was lucky to grab x-pipe marcredd had for sale I like the quad tips myslef. Check LDM thread he has quad tips installed and they look great.
NINJA
I've looked at his thread a million times! His car has always been one I admired. IIRC I've talked to him about his tips before. I pm too many people with questions to remember anything.
Yes sir.
