Caliper / Drum Paint

Since I own a black Matrix I am going to keep the theme and clean up the calipers and drums. I want to paint them black after cleaning of course. But I am a little off on the details.

-can you do it with the components still on
-spray or brush on

Those are the big ones, I can figure out the rest.

Yes, you can pretty much leave everything intact. If you spray, you'll have to do some masking, obviously but can get the painting done pretty quick. Brushing takes longer but you don't have to have the hassle of masking.
