I'm new here, so I thought I would get your opinion on this. Scale of 1 to 10, is it clean?

Thats up next on the wish list. After I sell my Prelude VTEC I'm goin Tein SS Coilover set. Their about $900.00. I thought about painting my calipers but once you paint them, then your going to have to repaint them every year. So I'm just going to wait untill I the Spoon Big Brake Kit.

How long ago did you paint them? My friend painted his about two years ago and he buys the real deal caliper paint. His flake off so he has to repaint them almost every year, or less.

I painted mine 2 years ago and they still look pretty good. I painted them black though. I need to do a little touch up on em

Ok, lets say I jump on the bandwagon, what color should I go with. I was thinking silver because of my wheels and my valvecover is silver.

First of all, nice clean teg! I would suggest painting the calipers shiny black or silver, and if you still have your rear disc covers (those things between the discs and the wheel hub), paint them silver too. It would look nice.

If you have the opportunity though, consider powder coating. There exists hi-temp powder coat that would last much longer than hi-temp paint, and look good for longer. It's more trouble but I wish I did it myself now that my front caliper paint is peeling. To make up for it, I think I might powder coat my valve cover...

That is a good suggestion! But I have looked around Houston for a place to get stuff "powder coated" and I have come up with NADA! But if I do find a place, I think I'm gonna go that rought, so I don't have to repaint them so often. By the way, thanks for the kudo on my clean teg. That's why I dropped $3k on it!
