Some people have done it, but most of the postS recommend removing the calipers in order to do the best possible job of it.

I did not remove my calipers and the paint is holding up nicely after 1000 miles. Here are my kind of step by step pictures.

I am actually about to do this tomorrow. My friend did it today on his Prelude. He used some degreaser and Brake Caliper paint from Pepboys. Will I be ok to use the same stuff, or would anyone recomend anything else?
Thanks,

If you track the car, you should think twice about it. But it's your car...!

I don't plan on tracking it, maybe once to see what it's likle if at all. I have done my research and I plan to stay away from foiltec. I think I will try the Krylon paint and see how that holds up.
