The fronts are a 6th gen BBK so I painted and baked them before I put them on the car. The rears are the original 5.5 gen calipers and I just painted them while changing the rotors and pads. I think it works if your side markers aren't smoked or cleared yet.

^^^ Max Looks good. Just my .02 but i dont really prefer the orange caliper look. It'd have to be red/black for me (biased)
On other observations; congrats on the 5.5 front end conversion. Looks nice!

SUPER crappy photo that I took today as I was walking up to it in the auto shop at school.... Radiator cap blew off for some unknown reason. Cost me precious money to go buy the anitifreeze... anyways.. That is what the car looks like as a whole with the wheels and calipers.

Really want to get those Windows tinted... Gonna be a while til I save up 200 dollars though... Other things on the list, smoked side markers, really wanna add halos but I'm afraid to do it, roof spoiler, a new muffler an underglow kit, and MAYBE some lowering springs..
