has anyone ever coloured the callipers (think thats what they are called the bit the brake pads fit into).
I have seen some chims with red etc etc is this a pro job or can it be done with smoothe right etc that will take the heat???

For nearly £20.

I used red Hammerite smooth - £3.99. 3 coats, looks fantastic. Just make sure you take the time to clean the calipers up properly (wire brush & brake cleaner). I also strongly advise you remove the pads to do a neat job.
