Brake Calipers?

Hey guys, I got a black civic (non si)... and I was really interested in changing the brake calipers. I've seen many other cars change theirs to red.. and I am thinking gold/bronze would look so slick on black.

My question is... How do i go about changing them? Do i change just the caliper and leave the brake pad? Do i gotta change everything?
Do you think some of you could give me a price that I should be expecting to pay in order to change? I dont want any crazy things yet (brembo... etc) just a bronze/gold brake caliper... lol

Thanks!

generally they will be painted if you don't want to upgrade to brembos. Here are some post where painting has been discussed. :)
