Painted brakes

Has anyone painted their brakes?
I have a super black touring and would like to paint to match the body.
Can i just use touchup paint?
Or would you suggest something else without having to spend the cash to replace the brakes?

tirerack.com sells some G2 kit for 40. You cannot use the touchup paint as I doubt it will be resistent to the heat.

Can you paint them still on the car or do you have to take them off.

I used G2 (silver) on my 04 Silverstone Roadster and it turned out really nice. Good color match. Took the calipers off of their brackets to paint 360. Took the brackets off of the car to paint on the bench.
