painting brembos?

anyone out here painted their stock copper brembo calipers to any other color? i have seen posts where drivers are painting their calipers to other colors but what I wanted to know was the stock brembos are powdercoated that copper color what if i paint over it(G2 spray etc..) will it stick or must i repowdercoat it?

Why bother? They're already painted a color that makes them noticeable and also flashy in a classy/recognizeably esteemed(Skyline GTR) sorta way.

Unless your Brembos are all scratched up and look like crap, I'd just leave them as is. Chances are that the new paint won't look half as good as the oem Gold.

What..................?

Why.............would you want to paint your Brembos?
It's like a status symbol to have them in the first place! They can be painted but again, why?
