Rock Chips on the calipers...

So I was cleaning my rims yesterday and noticed I had a few rock chips on my calipers, anyone else run into this problem? Would touch up paint be the best way to fix it?

I'm currently having a body shop mix me up some touch-up paint to fix a few caliper chips

I don't think there is a paint code for Brembo's red, but supposedly GM's Torrid Red is a good match. This is the red used on the 2006 Pontiac GTO.

you could do that, or take the time and take them off sand them down, primer and repaint then just buy the brembo stickers

The closest standard color to Brembo red is RAL 3003 aka Ruby Red.
