but can't get a good pic to save my life. I'll keep trying in case anybody is interested but for now this is all I have...

I didn't want to go the red route without having actual performance brakes so I went a little subtle with gold. Gold doesn't sound subtle but in this case I think it is

Looks good!

I just painted mine this week. Cool mod for little money. I went the red route, and I dont have performance brakes, nor do I care if anyone thinks that. I told a couple buddies I was painting my calipers and they didnt even know what that was.....I think its time for new buddies...

I think taking them off would be better so that you paint the whole caliper. Just my 2 cents.
