the paint better be high temp paint, or it will come right off... and make a mess on your rim!

Its called caliper paint. Its a can of hi temp spray paint which can be found at pep boys or anywhere. I painted mine red. With my chrome wheels, it looks sweet.

To paint: I just jacked up my car one wheel at a time. Then I took the wheel off, covered up the other parts w/ newspaper and tape, then sprayed away. You dont even need to cover up the calipers because the braking will rub that paint off anyway. Super easy
