You sprayed everything including the brake pads.

But would they last with heat?

I live in a place where temps go to 45C (113F) and 50C (122F) :P

Hmmmm.. I don't wait to paint the caliper but, I love the ///M decals!

Need someone to report back after seriously heating the calipers. I might be adding this to my to-do list

Yes they printed them on high temp material and specifically advertise it as a brake caliper decal

Your brake calipers get much hotter than your air temperature. Both the caliper paint and decals must be rated to handle very high temps

Stoptech and brembo sell calipers already painted under the assumption people will be tracking the car. I think you should go for the paint

Sorry about the double post, I was on my phone and its hard to see what's going on in the small window. I did this mod about 2 months ago with the decal and just a clear coat over the orig black caliper.
