for your calipers id just sand them down to rough em up a bit then use rustoleum paint for metal.. seeing as u live in michigan you will need to redo them every year after winter anyways so dont expect to find a paint that will hold up thru salt. thats if you drive your balt in winter like i do. Red would look best imo too
