You could get the color you want and paint them?

If you want logos or lettering just let me know. I could send you whatever. I’d just need you to tell me what size you want it. I’ve seen people write “Honda” on theirs. There are a few ways you can do that with vinyl masking. Again, if that’s what you’re after I’d just need to know sizing.

Or are you talking about the fake plastic caliper covers people sell on eBay that have like bembo stickers on them?

No one sells colored calipers unless you buy a big brake kit(thousands of $$$$). You basically have to paint them yourself.

oh they are plastic?
hmmmm
 
I have an extra set of front calipers. I was planning on having them powdercoated and replacing my current stock ones. I've decided to go with a BBK though, for track use.

I can sell them to you if you're interested, OP.
 
I used the G2 paint for mine. I only painted mine black. But, the guys at G2 allow you to make custom colors as well as their normally accessible colors. Also, not a lot of space for you to put lettering and logos on the stock brakes.
 
for anyone who may look at this thread in the future, I would advise against getting MGP Caliper Covers; the clips can rub against the rotor causing a ridiculously loud (and embarassing) grinding noise as well as they just don't look at good as painting them yourself. Get some caliper paint and just tape off your suspension and fender well and paint the caliper whatever color your heart desires that is available.
