Painting Brake Callipers

Because i have the Touring model, and have no real need for an upgrade of brakes, i am wanting to paint my callipers either black or red. (i have a black 300, so i don't know what color i want to paint the callipers yet)
Any info on the best kind of paint i can use?
Thanks
Matt

I hate to steer ya poor but I have had great luck with regular old Krylon. Works great as long as ya prep it. Mine have been done close to a year and I havn't one chip on any of the four.

Here's a thread from LXForums with some pics of different color calipers:

I used the Duplicolor. It's a brush on, but dries very smooth. Time consuming to do it right, but looks awesome.

Have Fun!

I used the G2 kit. I painted mine black but they hardly show up with the rims on.
