    My 2014 GT mustang has Brembo brakes. I understand the call out of a good brand. A lot of vehicles are painted a lot of different color for different aftermarket parts so its not to far fetch to paint. Yet I'm also not fond of staring at rusty calipers/drums.

    All jokes aside I actually like Taco calipers and the finish they put on them. They hold hold up well to the elements. I woulnt paint them just for that reason (and the many others noted) even f it were a black or grey etc.

    There. Postive .02 added.
