the best thing to do if u arent getting big brakes and keeping ur stock ones is to NOT DRAW ATTENTION to them!

i.e. dont paint them any color other than semi-gloss/flat black, no s2000 decals on the calipers, etc.

MAKE SURE IT's HIGH TEMP. Rebuilding calipers is a LOT of work. I also grinded mine down, took all the casting marks off and all the lettering.

Paint the calipers with some thing like G2 caliper paint, available from tirerack.com, and possibly buy the centric rotors with the black coating on the hub portion.
