If you are going to paint your calipers you should look into having them powdercoated lasts longer and looks less cheesy.
Actually, I meant powdercoat--they're originally red, but for some reason Porsche's brake caliper paint doesn't seem to stand the tests of time. There is a shop in my area that powdercoats calipers
