Nice!!
That does look nice. But you don't say if you used a special caliper paint or not. Hopefully you did. But here's words of warning before everyone jumps on this approach without being aware of how to do it correctly.
Having been in the Porsche forums for many years I'm aware of many attempts to paint calipers, some successful and some not. Granted that our calipers will rarely be exposed to the heat levels seen on real sports cars, so maybe simple paint will hold up. But it is usually the case that normal paints on calipers will fail over time and leave peeling, burnt, and/or chalky-looking paint behind. The "paint" used on Porsches is really a two-part epoxy, not a normal paint. Combine the heat down there with some of the chemical wheel-cleaning agents like those in some car washes and you really have a problem.
The bottom line is: If you want to do it so you know it will continue to look good, there are places that specialize in caliper refinishing for prices that aren't too crazy... but you do of course have to remove the calipers to send them away. If you do the paint yourself, in most cases you'll be happier in the long run using either a special caliper paint made to withstand the temperatures generated there or even the higher cost epoxy-based finishing kits. The good stuff appears to cost around $40-60 per can.
If the thought of high temps is a concern, high temp rattle can paint isn’t much more than regular stuff.That does look nice. But you don't say if you used a special caliper paint or not.
