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.
