IMO It looks better when they're both painted. I like offset colors like a black bracket and red caliper. I polished my caliper (its aluminum and wont rust) and painted the bracket (Steel and will rust if polished). Very easy to make an awesome set up for the brakes.
Heres how mine are:  Then I got tired of seeing the rust on everything else... so I painted those too:

They're super easy to keep clean. Because they're polished, they just wipe right off.

Love the polished calipers. I'm about to go back and paint my hubs, the rust drives me nuts.

corvettekid82 Your polished aluminum calipers are sick! Post up how you did it and how long it took. I'd love to do mine that way, never seen anything like that before.
