Calipers should be just fine after 42k miles. Its common for the '03 caliper paint to fade like that so you'll just need to toss a new coat of caliper paint on (if you care how they look).
That caliper isn't faded, they're still shiny. MINE are faded, they're clearly dull but still bright red. Those front calipers were heated to the point the paint started to burn. I've seen pictures of stock Evo 8/9 calipers turning almost black because the paint was burned so bad, simply from heavy braking.

Brake related question so i'll just toss it in here, would it be worth doing stainless steel brake lines? The only benefit for me I think would be that i'd never have to worry about replacing the brake line ever... is there any other reason to do it?

Yea I have them on my M. They definetely add to pedal stiffness and the braking is more responsive. Same goes for a clutch SS line, versus rubber.

SS lines are a good idea as long as you're tearing everything apart already.
