Painting calipers is fine, I hate the painted metal things people put over them rather than painting them. If you do it, it's all in the prep. Feel free to peruse the internet for how to videos, there are many.

They don't. With anything but the most casual glance, they look cheap.

Hey fry...You think you have the mod bug? Check out this thread from the A6/C7 forum. This fellow in Romania is taking modding to the ultimate level. Very interesting reading and visuals.

No sedan/saloon, only in avant/wagon format. Says he didn't want an avant.
