If you're after a particular color scheme and you only street drive, painting OEM calipers is likely your best bet. I got a BBK mostly because I track my car and wanted to lower consumable costs but half of the reason was also because they look awesome. Then there is the fact that there are around half a dozen WRB BRZs in my city and I'm the only one with Wilwood calipers which helps my car stand out. Multiple people have recognised me and my car around town because of them which I think is kind of awesome.

If you are purely street driving and you still want to get a BBK, you should keep an eye out for used 17PP brakes as I expect some people will upgrade to a proper track focused kit down the road. Otherwise, the Brembo GT kit is good too, because both kits will have dust boots.
