Last week I painted my calipers blue to match (as close as I could find) my car. I completely forgot to get a good photo of them today, but here are a few new photos at least....

Very nice.  Say, was it tough to paint the calipers?  Did you have to remove them first?  Did you lower that ride?

I t was fairly easy. I removed the front calipers and let them hang. The rears I left on and masked them off. It is lowered on ALTA springs (Made by H&R)

I painted my rear calipers recently as well. (I went with classic red...)  I just cleaned them up real good with brake cleaner and then sprayed and wiped down with paint prep. Brake caliper paint goes on real easy.
