All you have to do is follow the instructions I linked to in an earlier post. Use some brake cleaner first, then sand smooth. The lettering will disappear. Several coats of the red, apply the stickers, then several coats of the clear and you are done. I didn't remove my calipers, I covered everything with a trash bag as mentioned in one of those posts.
