Sorry mrkwinning, I didn't meant to steal your thread, but seems like few people wants to see the rear.
Here is what mine looks like.
I did take out the rear caliper from the bracket. It's held on by two 12mm (I think) bolts. I slides out easily from the bracket and you can mask the brake pads and all other components.
As long as you don't disconnect the brake hose, you don't need to bleed the brake.

Back a while ago, I came upon this thread that had a good idea for dressing up the small back calipers using an Acura part. I think by adding this small plate, it made the rear calipers look slightly better and it allows you to stick a vinyl logo on it too. I think I will attempt it when I finally get around to painting the calipers. Just an idea...

Finally got around to installing the rear caliper covers. Had to sand off the ACURA letters, but that was quick & easy enough. Applied my Lexus lettering and a top coat of clear. Not too bad and it matches the front calipers very well.
