Speak to Bastoli auto body & paint in Los Angeles. He does painting for brembo, so he would know best. I would even send my calipers to him to get it painted.

I would rather podwer coat them. Now days you can podwer coat even headers permanently to whatever color you want to. I will do some search for you.

I was going to paint mine too until I was advised at the shop I went to that paint would melt off so I got it powdercoated and it looks great!

powder coating is definitely the way to go for a lasting finish...
but if you wanna go on the cheap you can easily DIY with high temp engine paint and high temp clear you can get from any auto parts store. Have done that with a lot of my cars, and never had an issue.

+34905872340 on powder coating. I powder coated several of my things on my 1969 Camaro, including the calipers. It's extremely durable and isn't that expensive.
