I have them paint now, just waiting for them to dry now. My evo is Apex Silver, by the way. Doing the last and final rim at the same time also. Ill have some more pics in about an hour or so. I cant do the Brembo decal for like 2 hours though :O but its going to be silver.

For later when someone asks. I used the G2 Caliper kit, BUT I only used it because it has thick paint. Its crappy quality unless you take like 4 hours to do it, but by that time the paint will be hardened. Anywho.

I used the G2 Caliper kit, 3 coats of that (looks like crap when ur done)

Then I used Duplicolor Engine Enamel Gloss black (Engine enamel has a higher temp rating than the caliper enamel).

Looks good but just a few questions. Why didn't you take them off the car? What kind of paint are you using? What clear coat? Are you going to get the Brembo stickers to go back on it? If so, where are you going to get them from?

1: No need to paint the insides/back really, nobody sees that :P

2
a: G2 caliper paint for calipers, then duplicolor Engine enamel gloss black after 3 coats of the crappy G2 stuff (its thick and holds well, so its not too crappy. Just looks crappy)

b: Wheels, just used Duplicolor Engine enamel gloss black.

3: Rustoleums Painters Touch, Gloss clear coat.

4: Brembo Stencils, you can buy the 2 in, and 1 ½ in stencils.

5: See answer 4
