Yes they can be painted Lorenz , and its also possible to get maserati logo's just search online (for brake calliper decals ) personally i used a proper company to spray a black set i had yellow , there now sat in my garage on the shelf , do a google search for brake calliper heat resistant paint and laquer if your doing it yourself , and yes its reasonably easy to remove pistons but i wouldn't re-use the seals , i would replace with new ones

hope this helps
