Default Brake Caliper Decals...for ES300's

I have been entertaining the idea of painting my brake calipers in the near future and by looking at the threads on here i notice a lot have to do with the IS decals. does anybody know if there are decal options for the ES300, or would you simply by two sets of the decal kits floating around? And i apologize in advance b/c i know there have been some posts on here concerning the different paint systems for brake caliper applications, but can some of you give me some advice as to which is better, perhaps with respect to durability. I would especially like to hear from the owners that have already chosen to paint their calipers. Thanks for the invaluable info as usual.

Cool

Decals??? Gay, Super gay, Outrageously gay - South Park
Dude if you want your calipers a color, take them off, clean them up & either bake a few coats of hihg-temp paint on, or powder coat them. Home powder coating kits are sub $100 on ebay & the powder is cheap.

High temp powder coating > powder coating > high-temp paint
