Just FYI, if you want to do it cheaper (not as cool as painted of course, but much cheaper) you can try this:

Looks cheap and ugly, and won't last long as well.
 
Mine’s been on for almost a year now. Looks the same as the day I installed it, so longevity doesn’t appear to be an issue. It’s made with calipers vinyl after all.
I also love the color accent but obviously I am biased 🙄
I understand you're the vendor, but "calipers vinyl" is not the material.

Scotchlite 680 has a service temperature range of -34C to +93C. Any actual braking will bring calipers to above that temperature.

x080 films have even less heat resistance.

According to 3M it's also pretty damn permanent: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/b00020988/

The break pads can get hot, the design of the calipers shells where this vinyl goes is such that they never reach anywhere near that temperature. I’ve conducted a lot of tests before releasing this product and I can confidently say - this won’t melt. Also sold thousands of these and so far 0 melted, and judging by the kind of feedback I receive I am sure if it melted for anyone I would’ve known.
As for permanent - all car wrap vinyl is permanent. It’s easily removed by heating it.
 
did mine in a weekend.
