Painted calipers
 
Here are my calipers that I painted. They are very glossy and the finish lasts. I painted these last summer and to keep them clean I just wipe them off.

looks good, mine has stood up some time too (maybe 3 years?) but I want to redo them this summer.

I've had success in the past with caliper paint as well, however I still think powdercoat holds up much much better, especially to the heat. Oh and I would paint your pad carriers personally. Change them from silver to black. Just don't do them red....I've seen that one and it always looks bad...takes away from the actual caliper.

I did mine with the duplicolor kit over a year ago, they need to be cleaned off and touched up some. I sprayed mine with my touch up gun instead of using that damn little brush they give you.
