Dude...make sure you get the Duplicolor high temp engine enamel. We sprayed some calipers on a Mustang in Ford Blue...and the calipers looked great even after 2 years of never washing them off. We didn't even clean off the calipers, and the paint sticks like a mofugger. I used the same engine enamel on the brakes on my Focus if you want to take a look. They have been painted black for over a year, and still look like they were sprayed yesterday.

Will Home Depot mix some up for me so I can have custom brake colors?

No, but I'm sure a nice latex interior paint will work well. Make sure you get the washable kind.

Actually the Duplicolor engine enamel comes in a spray can. The Ford Blue color looks real nice. It is about the same color as the Ford emblems.

That's the color that I'm looking at...I'll have to take you up on looking at the focus next time I see you.

It is a bit darker than the color of your intake. Craig had the original calipers on his silver '96 painted with this color, they looked very nice against the silver.

Mike...my calipers are black on the Focus, but you'll get an idea of the finish. I had a strut tower brace coated in the ford blue engine enamel. About 3-4 coats of that stuff and NOTHING was able to chip, stain, or mess up the paint.
