Yep, Ebony. Took 'em all off for a good spring cleaning and painted the calipers while I was at it.

Thanks for compliments all.

I painted mine as well and I love them. They don't stick out like a sore thumb behind the A-Specs

i used black rustoleum, with a small sponge brush and some wax paper to keep the brake disc clean and paint-free on the trickier parts. i think those more mechanically inclined take the brakes apart to paint them, but i think i did almost as good of a job just taking my time.
