I didn't use any but some high temp primer wouldn't hurt any.

BBK usually means Big Brake Kit. Brembos' are not big brake kits IMO. Not sure what that guy was talking about.

Quick question, im considering doing this, and changing rotors. How hard is it to actually get the brake off of the rotor?

caliper off car>>>>2 bolts (i believe aprox 17mm) and one line (12-14mm) hemostat >> free caliper..... and the rotor is as easy as a good thud with a hammer.
thing is if you remove the line you have to bleed your brakes..... and as i found out the hard way alunimum calipers and steel bleeders oxidize together and in no way shape or form like to be loosened or removed... almost had to buy a new caliper when i did this.....had one break off in the caliper too.......  was a nightmare with some good old PB blaster and a little heat... the part that worries me most is that my car only had 50k on it....... 
neglecting that fact that I "should" bleed my brakes more often.
anyone else have this probem..
later

If i take the caliper off car to paint them is it hard to change the brake lines,
also would it be gay to paint them pink?

They should be easy to remove. Now on painting your calipers pink, you're on your own.

yes you take the pads off!!!! it is not that hard but you have to clean everything all the gummed up road drit in there!
if some reason your to lazy to pull off the pads then yeah can just paint the outside of the caliper.
you would fill better painting the hole thing thow at the end
