I am doing a full one, and I would LOVE some red calipers.. but I do not have the know how to paint them properly unfortunately nor do I think I have the tools to do so. Unfortunately everyone here lives pretty far away from me so no one for me to pay to teach me how to do it over some beers! Haha. But yeah I would love some red calipers, my car is a dark torreador metallic(maroonish) and so I think a nice bright red would make them pop out real well.

Get a G2 Paint Kit. It's very easy, and you can even just brush it on.

That's awesome! Seems easy enough! I will definitely look into doing that. I don't mind removing it all again at a different time so will wait out on it, I know it is only like $45 but I already spent too much this month haha! Good to know though!
