I ordered the brembo decals but i wanted to know if i paint the calipers now and install the decals a couple days later if it will make a difference. I wouldnt clear coat the caliper until i get the decal though.

Your option might have to be powdercoat. Dupli color might have a color close but there only rated for like 500f compared to vht which is 1500f

I installed the decals about two hours after painting. I just made sure the paint was dry to the touch and then waited a little longer to be sure.
