I'm gonna take the plunge - talked with the local custom/mod shop down the street that painted the calipers on my 03 Beetle a year ago - cost should be the same (maybe a lil more as I'll probably pay for two boxes of paint to have each caliper painted at least 4, if not 5 times).

Ordered the Porsche caliper decals (carbon fiber) on eBay today and once the paint arrives, will drop it off. Gonna go with Yellow for a wicked contrast against the black and 19" Carrera S wheels.

Will post pix after its done!
