Default Does anybody here paint calipers?

I remember Hockey used to do this back in the day. I am looking to have my calipers repainted to gloss black. I have wilwood calipers in the front and stock in the rear.

The Wilwoods are just really faded and the rears were previous painted by the previous owner and are peeling (cant really see in pic but they need to be redone).






Anybody?

Just order some G9 Caliper Paint. It's pretty easy to do and the kit comes with everything. There's like 10 different colors pre mixed and you can get a 'custom' color for an additional cost.
