Don't do it. The word is BRAKE, not break, and if you tamper with it, you are tampering with your brakes. If you want to get it chromed or finished in any way, go to a reputable body shop and have it done by someone who knows what they are doing.

I personnaly would get them powder coated. However, to do this, you will have to disassemble them and remove the rubber seals that surround the piston. Powder coat is sprayed on while the part is charged with electrons. The spray attaches to the part and is baked at 350-400 degrees. Powder coat is more durable that paint and will withstand higher temeratures.
