Default caliper paint

What do you guys think. My are kinda beat up looking and a coat of paint would make them look a whole lot better. Nothing crazy I thinking maybe a darker color... also when I have the wheels off I'm going to reblack the plastic inner fender to dress that up a bit... but anyways caliper paint << too ricey?

The duplicolor caliper paint is amazing. I also have used Duplicolor high temp engine paint (for different colors) with great success.

I don't think they're too ricey.I just got a front pair of dual piston calipers and painted them.When I get them on I'll post some pics too.

I did mine last spring with the duplicolor, and they are holding up real well.

I used the duplicolor and painted mine red, matches my stripes on the wheels. IMO green or blue would be ricey but other than that you're good.
