Couple minor mods done recently..... Finally got around to painting my calipers black, and getting some clear corners for the front lenses from Afterthoughts Auto.
I just used some brake cleaner, and a wire brush to clean them up really good, taped off the car and back of the pads so they didn't get painted. Sprayed the calipers with high gloss black engine paint. I am really glad i didn't go with red, I think black was the right choice.
Here are some pics from during the process.....
Finished product.....
couple pics of the T/A as well...........

I think it would have been easier if you had unbolted the caliper bracket, there are only two 15mm bolts holding it from the back.... not that hard to remove... it looks good anyway!
I would have gone with silver/aluminum metalic calipers.
