It's pretty easy. You can buy a Duplicolor caliper painting kit or spray cans. I used the caliper painting kit since it's brush on(no overspray) and comes with a can of brake cleaner. If you leave you calipers on the truck just get a roll of blue painters tape and tape off everything you don't want painted. Prepping with brake cleaner and an old toothbrush are you friend for a good finish either way you go.

I did the Duplicolor, comes in blue, matched theme...there was enough to do 3 trucks...pics in my album if you want to see.

maybe do (black) spray rubberized undercoating for the wheel wells...

so did you clean them or sand them or just spray directly on

Clean them really good with brake cleaner and a wire brush. Blow them off with compressed air and you should be good to go. The brush on stuff would be much better than just regular spray paint.
