Looks real good man ... I may have to add this to my list. I just painted my calipers Oklahoma State orange, just in time for the upcoming football season. (actually Porsche Boxster orange from G2 caliper paints)

Kind of a ****ty pic but this may give you an idea, they turned out great ... left the calipers on, brushed it on just like the directions said and the paint did an outstanding job of self-leveling as it cured. Looks professional. Akebono decals on top.

Your side shots look so sick! I love the calipers as it is now, but i think gold can match that look too!

Nice! I'm leaning towards doing the same too. Can't stand the squeaky brakes anymore... I'd keep the caliper stock color, flows so well with your wheel color and rotors!

nice brake upgrade... What you should do is repaint the blck section in time paint is going to start coming off and your going to start to see rust again... I was so happy when installed my rotors and only lasted about a month/month1/2 before the blck started to come off.
