Your license plate should be "Kermit"

I like it... very different. Black wheels and color matched calipers will look unreal.

are you getting them powdercoated? whatever they do paint etc dont let them get anything inside the piston bores. i had a set almost ruined due to that. the silicone coating can be scratched very easily.

I remember rebuilding my Porsche calipers for my MINI Cooper and they were a bit of a pain. New seals, pistons, clips, silicone lube, a thorough clean and you're good to go. I powdercoated calipers before and painted the ones for my MINI, unless you are going to track hardcore painting will do but you need a high-temp primer... the same process Brembo does (they don't powdercoat), gives you the flexibility to paint your calipers any color you want.
