anyone painted red calipers another color?

I'm not thrilled with red calipers on my Steel Gray '15 63S. Has anyone tried another color?

If you are looking for someone to paint them a different color, go to the corvette forum and look for Mike the powdercoater. He does great work.

Have them powder coated, versus painted. the seals have to be removed first. because of the baking process. but well worth it in the end.
