OK so im painting the calipers as soon as I get my rims on. I dont know how to make a poll so here it goes...

P.S I have the 3 dr but you get the idea.....Cleong, i hijacked your picture and messed with the tails and side marker to make it look like mine!!

black :)

or a nice dark bronze

also, that "high heat" paint mumbojumbo is a sell tactic.

i sprayed my calipers with one light coat of "import spray" from wal mart and never saw any peeling or bubbling.. 2 years of autocross and they were fine..

it's basically just a color coded paint.. sold in small cans that have a generic color code on them

Black. I did mine black and used a small paint brush. No messy paint spray.

TRD red, powdercoated. I take crappy pics....this one doesn't do these justice. They turned out real nice.

TRD red FTW. or orange, but then you'd have to carry that through somewhere else.
