Default Why Do You Want to Paint Them? That holds in the heat, that's why they don't paint

Engine blocks anymore. BTW-Like your car...I have the same colors and wheels only on an avant...good taste!!!!!!

Default Interesting theory which is flawed. All calipers come with some coating to protect against rust...

That's why when new they are shiny. However the stock coating won't last.

Porsches, Ferraris, MBs, BMWs, Stoptechs and so on come with painted calipers and I don't recall any of them having heating or over heating problem, do you?
