Most people dont replace them, they just paint them. Search the forums, you can find information on the best way to go about it and plenty of pictures.

I am talking about the calipers, I painted my calipers on an old mazda I had back in the day, I think it looked kinda cheap so I wanted to get real replacement racing calipers, like the brembo's.

I think they have caliper covers, but I personally prefer paint.
Here's a thread from my.is that discusses it:
