Default 97 DX calipers

So I got some new EBC brake pads and Brembo Rotors and I wanted to paint my calipers but despite what Haynes says, my rotors seem to have only one bolt holding the Caliper to the pad bracket. it looks like the rear part of the caliper is held on by some sort of pin but it does not look anything like a hex bolt. I could still paint the parts with it all together but I could do a way better job if I took off the pad bracket. Any suggestions?

Ya they would definitely be black cuz Im gonna get black wheels with a polished lip. But that still doesnt answer my question of how I get the caliper off.
