Hello! It's possible to paint mecedes - benz on the calipers? How? I saw some stikers on eBay but with the products to clean the wheels i doubt they will last "forever"...

Read some posts on MB World where some members have put MB/Brembo/AMG stickers on calipers then sprayed with a few coats of clear coat to give added protection. To hand paint them would be time consuming unless you are a good signwriter.

Hmmm. My W211 came with the Mercedes Benz logo on the calipers. Is this not standard?

Use WonderWheels to get this off
This is true, especially if your using a sport pad from the likes of ferodo or similar. I use pagid RS pads on the toledo and on sprinted driving the hot brake dust melts away the wheel's clear coat.
Stickers on the brake caliper will not work. The heat generated in the braking system will eventually burn off the sticker.
