def powder coat it, not paint. Even the high temp paint will chip eventually. Powdercoat will be more durable. You could remove the calipers yourself if you have some mechanical skills. He might be charging you more because of the labor involved in removing and re-installing the calipers which is unstandable. They are fairly easy to remove though, just a couple of bolts and the brake line. I think there is a DIY somewhere here.

Also, its a good idea to change your brake fluid, lines, pads etc. while your at it.
