Painted Calipers
Another hop up I want to do eventually, paint the calipers red, should I do this sooner than later? What is involved to powdercoat them? Thanks for your feedback!
As soon as I can, I will add a picture of "DA HERS" as it is today! thanks

remove em and drop em off to be powder-coated at a place that does it.
There are many caliper paint kits that are infinatly cheaper and ya don't have any down time. Just pop the wheels off and paint em. I used regular old Krylon on mine and have had no probs at all either with heat or with chippage.
Turned out great and didn't cost me a dime as I already and the paint from doing my engine cover. The only thing on my car I have used high temp paint on are the cans of my magnaflow kit.
Here are the calipers:

I used Dupli-Color paint kit for brake calipers, forget what I paid for it. Results were good, easy to do, painted the calipers while they were on car, use masking tape and be careful.
Excuse the dust on the calipers, had to take new photos for you.

Those Brembo's ARE very nice and pretty expensive, about $4K to $5K if I am not mistaken, is it possible to just get the brake calipers? I could not tell on the sites I have hit, thanks
