So, I had a very productive sunday morning... I finally got around to painting my Calipers and Im extremely pleased with how they turned out!

Let me know what you think! Bear in mind that whatever you see on the rotors, is rust from last nights rain, not paint... Also, excuse the phone pics, I know theyre not the best quality but I didnt have my camera at that time...

Next stop: Corksport SRI as soon as they ship it, which, according to when I placed my order, should be going out this week...

Nice job! Did you pull the calipers off or just cover up the rotors/body and paint?
 
They look good. I was thinking about doing that as well. But dont know what color to go with. I was thinking black.
 
Thanks for the comments!!

@JTMS3 I didnt pull them out, TBH, I wouldnt know how to and I dont have the proper tools, plus, that might invalidate the warranty so I preferred not to. In my defence, I did paint the whole caliper, front and back, just not the insides...

@spaciousnex, IMO, black is to discrete, Id probably still go with red on your car, thatll make the calipers stand out which is always a very nice touch. It should look good, I dont doubt that, but Id, personally, stick to a more 'flashy' color... Look at gejay99's car here, its got red calipers and looks amazing!!
