Looks great!
I am leaning towards Burnt Copper on my black c43 coupe with black wheels. Found a place in Toronto called Spence Tire that will do it with decals for $180 CAD.

Where the calipers painted on the car? How did they treat the rear calipers in regards to the exposed brake pad? Did they paint the pad as well or mask it?

Caliper painting

I found painting caliper covers waste of money the $300-$400 they charge is temporary and your a slave to the dust I got the MGP caliper cover for $310 and easy to clean and keeps clean compared to painting and dealing with the black dust even after u have ceramic brake pads installed just FYI 👍

nothing
I personally would not paint the calipers; the front ones will look fine but the rear ones look sort of tacky in my opinion because they are just regular small calipers with exposed pads.

Why not just get them powder coated for like $400-$500 if you plan on keeping the car a while
