I've always painted my OEM calipers (11/19 MDX red, 06TSX/08 RDX/18 RLX black). I keep my vehicles for +10 years and +150,000 miles and the calipers eventually get discolored and rust covered. Painting them protects them well past the 150,000 mile mark. Even if someone doesn't like red calipers, black painted calipers look better than rust & brake dust covered silver ones.
