I'm on my 3rd caliper paintjob and have yet to have an issue with the stickers (cleared over). I havent tracked any though so not sure bout track temps. you could always just get stencils and paint them on as a more permanent option. Then they will last as long as the rest of the paint.

Do you take the calipers apart when you paint them? What "curing" process do you use? Mine are painted right now & my girlfriend will be putting the stickers on tomorrow then doing 3 or so coats of clear....

I think they turned out pretty well...We'll see how long they last...Ill just keep them on the car till the calipers actually need to be rebuilt and then Ill send them out to be powder coated and rebuilt at the same time...This paint job will work for now...
