Rerailing...
I painted my calipers with the VHT caliper paint, the semi-gloss black. I also painted the rotors to match. I hated the nasty grimy look of them things.
I've been *very* pleased with the results. Of course, I didn't get the entire rotor face painted, so there's a little orange ring near the hubs... I'll be addressing that soon. Hard to guess where not to paint.
Excepting that one little problem, they look good and don't seem to have lost their looks from when I put them on. I keep 'em cleaned. Very happy with the results.
Now, they're not shiny, and not red/blue/yellow/chartruse/Springtime Sunset Auburn Metallic (if that's even a color) but they 'disappear' much better than the stock whatever was on it, and it was easy and cheap to do.
My $.04 on it (Inflation, y'know.)
