Is it a lot of work to get the calipers off??? Will you have to bleed all the brakes after? Do you bleed them like any other car or is it all fancy???

Its not alot of work to get them off but you will need help bleeding them. The other disadvantage of pulling them off and painting is you have to be extra careful not to let brake fluid get on newly painted calipers if not cured properly. See my post and pics above. For me however pros out weight the cons in pulling them off and doing properly.

I hope the stickers I ordered from E-bay are the same as the original different size for the front and rear calipers.

After painting and then installing the sticker do you clear coat the calipers? Did you use just brake cleaner to clean the caliper?
