i got my caliper paint from Discount Auto Parts. not sure about the brand but it was not as good as i expected. (the paint not the look).
I also got my caliper decals from DecalGirl but they did not stick as good as i expected also. Half of my "S" is gone on the front right caliper.
Probably will have to do it all over...
