Anyone with painted red calipers??

I'm thinking about painting my calipers red, but want to see what it looks like on a black 03 CL-S. Anyone have any pics? If so, what did you paint it with?

I haven't seen anyone with painted calipers for the CL...but I know performanceproducts.com sells a kit to paint them yourself.

I ll take a picture tomorrow in the light I have had painterd for 3 years. Use nothing but a 2 part e[oxy paint for the powder coated look.

Mine are black, you may be able to see in the linked photos but they are old....

How important is the "kind" of paint used guys. I was thinking
about doing my calipers in black and was going to use high heat
paint that has worked great on bbq grills, and even before on my windshield wipers. Its' flat, and holds up great. What do you guys think?
