G2 caliper paint, It uses a brush and would come out perfect.

When its warmer... doesn't paint need a specific temperature too sort of harden better? Besides you live in NY you should know how crappy the weather is recently but this week will be warm so hopefully i can do the caliper change this week...

Oh I see the weather, but you have the caliper in hand? So paint them up good let them dry a day and clear coat them. Now I would do all 4 of course, that would require a good dry space to work on the car and leave it overnight to dry. You don't necessarily need hot or cold weather to do it.

I dont know... i think it would work but why would you want to do that the fronts are usually bigger and the front calipers are usually bigger.... so I'm not entirely sure it'll fit

if you do it show us pictures of the accident… just kidding. i wouldn't put the rear calipers up front… too small. the breaking power comes from the front calipers
