Anyone painted their Base Cayman break calipers?

The decals and paint are available from places like tweeks, automotion, performance parts, or pelican parts.

This has been discussed a couple of times before - if you do a search, you'll be able to find the threads... I remember that one of the threads even, talked about different techniques for doing the actual painting, things to watch out for, etc.

Mine are red, I did not specify them being so but they look quite nice and I am quite happy with them. The car is black but also has the red taillights, so its quite a nice match.

Yes I have. Clean the calipers. Make sure no brake dust or it will spot. Make sure you have no cleaner left over either or it will also spot. Use the highest temp paint you can find.
