With the help of my pal, Maurice in Long Island (who also has a 986), I used the G2 Caliper Paint Kit to paint my calipers red last weekend. We did the whole job in one day, including slapping on the Porsche decals and putting on 2 coats of clear coat over them. Took a total of 8 hours to prep and clean off the calipers in preparation to paint, paint, and then allow it to cure long enough to put on the decals and clearcoat.
Props to djolmas who gave me the tip of cutting a hole through a trash bag to pull over the caliper, in order to mask off areas that you don't want to paint. It allowed us to paint each caliper without having to take them off the rotors.
Now to the pics:

The finished product. The G2 kit was easy to work with, and results were great!
