Default Take your girlfriend out to dinner instead...

Why call attention to the crappy stock calipers?

Default if you paint them, buy the BIG can of paint for $5 and not the $30 tiny "caliper paint"

give it 2-3 layers, wait 20 minutes betwen layers. Don't worry about getting paint on the rotors either. It'll get pealed off by the brake pads before you leave the parking lot.
