I did mine last year

Calipers painted in high temp aircraft paint



Bells with high temp silver rattle can & high temp lacquer



Bells lasted 5 minutes but calipers still wipe over good as new after a year of hard braking

Default Caliper refurb

I have done a half dozen of these, the pain in the ass is pushing the pistons and seal back in, can end up damaging caliper on garage wall after throwing them across the room! Its a DIY if you have all of the tools and airline as in the speedys Garage youtube

Good Luck!

Got them done with the brake calliper specialists. There work is really good just a bit on the expensive side. The colour I went with was a colour they use on mclarens cars . Thought it would look good on the Csl something different than the red or black callipers .
