Make sure you put a little hose on the screw. The brake fluid takes off the paint pretty easely.

You don't need to take off the calipers...Just tape everything off really good!

Just make sure you clean them well and then lightly sand and clean off again. You can leave the brakes on just tape really well. I used duplicolor high heat engine paint and did 2 light coats and 1 medium.

I think the color calipers kind of depend on the color of your car - I've got gold brembos on my silver coupe and they look insane. I think red calipers on a graphite or black G would be really slick too

I think red looks the best

yes I also think red looks the best http://cybertec.smugmug.com/ph...L.jpg

Here are mine. Easy to do. Just mask off well. I think red looks cheap on stock calipers. Black and silver look good and gold might not be bad either.
