Best way to paint your brake calipers?

lol... plasti-shittt on brakes?

i would use dedicated caliper paint or powdercoat, but if those are base brakes just leave them stock. no need to show off cheap metal cast..unless they are rusted or something nasty.

Where could I get either of the 2 from? And they are really rusty

I agree. Take I good look at whether or not the calipers are something you want 'sticking out like a sore thumb' after you paint them. If they are rusted maybe just clean 'em up and paint 'em black.
