You mean the caliper and caliper bracket? I'd just paint the caliper red and leave the bracket alone, just my opinion.

I'd do the bracket and caliper myself. Red is the obvious choice. G2 kit or nothing, anything else is pointless....aside from powder coating.

I think I did my caliper red and then the bracket I did black. At a distance you can't see the black but up close it looks good. Just and idea if you wanted to try that.
