No they're not. I was thinking of painting them red, but I don't like how the rear caliper looks painted red (too small). The rims I'm getting are going to be gloss black, so I thought they would look good the color they are.

Doesn't look like it. Black decal rover cleaned caliper. Wonder if it was clear coated after...

I did not clear coat or paint anything. Just a can of brake clean and some elbow grease to get them cleaned up, and new sticker of course.

Thanks, I was surprised as well how good the calipers looked once cleaned up and stuck on new sticker.
