Well this was my fisr time ever doing something like this so im not to sure what should be painted or not
i might repaint them or add more paint to see if i can get it darker and also paint the other parts to give it a more better look.

Yes, you should paint the brackets. You can try making your own darker blue. Mix a few drops of black into the blue and see what it looks like.

I used regular automotive spray paint to paint the calipers on my daily driver. It's been over a year and they still look like new. You can get paint to match your car from www.automotivetouchup.com.
