Plasti-Kote makes a paint line called anodizit, it's a deep metallic (anodized) look to the paint. I've seen it from a couple of other companies with similar style paints. But they make a deep red color that would probably look awesome. I'm doing mine in the dark blue color. It's not caliper specific, however it does work to like 500degrees;I've heard many people have used it before, and it holds up just fine for them. See if you can find that, because those colors are awesome and would probably be just the red you are looking for. I've also heard from a lot of people that you dont need to get the caliper specific paints, as long as you use a high temp clear coat that it'll still work just fine.AIM: Alientr8tr<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/583450\" target=\"_blank\">1998 Camaro 3.8L</a><br />Flowmaster 80-series, !FRA, Eibach Springs, KYB AGX, SLP sway bars, 3.42/LSD, Wings West kit, Z06 Motorsports, Silverstone Metallic paint<br /><a href=\"http://www.shift5.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Shift 5</a> - My BandComment

Duplicolor makes lots of colors and you can use their regular autospray which you can pick up at Walmart. I've done 5 sets of calipers with their paint over the years [img]smile.gif[/img] . Also be sure to clear coat with their product and mask everything off if you're not taking the calipers off the car.
Heres a pic of mine..the color's the same as the front flames [img]smile.gif[/img]
and a pic of my boyfriends that I painted
