does anyone have a photo of painted calipers with stock 17" rims? im trying to decide between black paint or silver paint and that would really help.

 

How many cans of spray paint do you need to do this job?

 

It only took one can and I still have a lot of paint left in the can.

 

 

A few months ago, I re-painted the brake calipers on my 2005 LS430 UL. Paint is Flint Mica, rims are 5-spoke OEM in “hyper black.” I had originally painted the calipers in a metallic grey, along with the hubs on the rotors. I wanted to add just a little zip to the overall look, while embracing the classic lines. I picked a metallic red spray paint, basically trying to complement the dark red of the tail lights. I think they came out rather nice.

P.S. I also recommend OEM mud guards. They add a little zip as well.
