    Clean them and paint them. Get some good pads, rotors, and stainless steel brakelines and you'll be way better off!!

    Not to hi-jack (sorry if I do);
    but,
    I've seen so many paint the calipers with the brake pads still in.
    Shouldn't they be off; wouldn't it look better?

    "Shouldn't they be off"

    IMHO... That would be the proper way to do it.
