Painted Calipers

I think yellow calipers would look good with black rims. Opinions?

Painting Calipers can be tricky if you leave them on the car. The risk of missing areas and increasing tackiness. Plus the fact that depending on heat/grit/water it will eventually start to come off.

You're much better off going the route of Powder Coating. It's simple to have done and not too expensive either. It will look much better and last a lot longer as well.
