    Nice. But it would be nicer without the trim rings like this:

    This was the Duplicolor caliper paint kit. You can get it from your local auto parts store. I read some good and bad reviews about the paint but personally, I think it will hold. Just prep the caliper well.

    If you want more color options you can go with G2 but I couldnt find a local store here in OC.

    As for the trim rings, I kinda like the look with them on. It gives the illusion of the spokes being thinner. Until I find a nice set of wheels I really like, I keep the trims on. :)
