Don't paint them. They'll look gay-er than Dale Wintons shopping trolley.

Very bad.

I think painted calipers done well actually make the car look pretty neat....they tidy up the appearance.

I thought AE's looked ok....and would consider some reds on my MCB....to match the headrests of course.

AE's caliper paint was definitely looking worse for wear at Anglesey - I think I'd get the calipers powder coated if I really wanted them painted (assuming power coating gives a sufficient tough finish in high temps)

mine have gone really really rusty, think i need to do something, maybe paint them grey. I've seen some that have been painted and they look ok i thought.

Its just a shame honda didn't put decent ones on in the first place.

And what colour would you suggest for the disks?
I was thinking of having them chromed and then Ziano them for the shine.

I don't think black could be classified as Max Power at all
