Finally painted my calipers! :-) Pics...

With the help of a fellow bay area preluder (Anthony - br3ak3r84) he totally helped me take them off, sand them down, clean 'em up and bled the brakes. They look a lot better than they did before... what u guys think? dark gunmetal color

Why not painted them blue like your car. You don't want to show off your caliper?

good thing you didnt paint them blue. it would've thrown it off, I dont like painted calipers because its like your trying to show off your stock brakes. if you have brembos or rotoras then they should be a bright color. but you did very good you have a nice package there lots of eyecandy

looks like a cleaned up version of OEM, which is good. painted calipers on a blue car look cheese...
