E55 AMG
Looks mint. Adds a nice contrast with your paint and rims

Thinking about painting mine too. Did you take the calipers off the car, or leave them on?

no i painted them while on the car masked everything well, i am super **** and have to have everything perfect so make sure you have a few cans of break cleaner the NON CHLORIDE kind whenever you paint over something you dont want spray it with it and boom gone but be careful because if that hits your caliper when you paint them it will ruin it lol :/ anyways for less than $60 bucks to have them all done and look sick beats having others quote me 150 per caliper no thanks this will do
