Ive just painted mine mate and they look mint. Got a tin of red caliper paint from halfords for £9.99 done the trick  :happy2:

daz5182:
just done mine too with "odds and ends" plasticote enamel paint from B&Q cost me £2.99, 1 pot did all 4.

Used it on other cars and the finish is really good and they don't peel from heat.

Cheers guys I will give that a go sometime next week I think  :happy2:

How about Hammerite smooth red paint? I've never used it or anything else on my calipers but always hear it's brilliant. Preparation is key, make sure u clean all the grime and sand down your calipers for a great finish rather than a 'looks better' finish. Wire brush helps too.  :happy2:
