White calipers... On a bbk, it looks gangster...

I'm gonna do it one day.. Sure it needs to be cleaned every few months, but its worth it for the pimp factor.

white calipers won't ever stay white though because of all the brake dust. Also, the wheels would need to be taken off to clean the calipers so its kind of a big deal. I'd say the black even more with black rims

Nahhhh.. Not really.
I've never seen Porsche brakes ever get that dirty.. 20,000 miles and I could still see purty red..

White will get dirty just like the rest. But if you have a bbk, then I'm sure you'll be cleaning it off at least once a year which should be more than enough.

Branden??
First, Wheels are different.. Do your wheels get dirt on them from the road, splashes, etc.?? I'm sure yes is the answer. My brakes don't get as dirty as my wheels do within a few days. The exterior of my brakes doen't seem to get that dirty THAT quick.

I'm sorry, maybe its just me, I could be wrong on this with everyone else, but the cars that I've had and driven, the brake calipers never got that dirty in that short amount of time.. After a few months, could they use a cleaning? Sure, but that's after some time and serious driving..
