I used high temp VHT paint and it never tried to come off. Christian has them now, so maybe he'll chime in. Just mask the pistons and mounting surfaces and start spraying!

High temp paint and sand paper...lots of prep work to make sure the paint sticks; make sure you clean them like 50 times over prior to paint haha. Never failed me.

idk, never saw the point. I dont even have Nissan lettering on mine. I like the boring ol gray color. Each person does things differently.
