I like cheap, but that seems tooo cheap. But the price I referred to is done by a top quality place, including:
Multiple cleaning stages, including ultrasonic
Quality certifications (ISO, QS)
Six Sigma quality standards
100% quality and leak testing
High quality powder coat, specifically for high temp applications.
And since it wasn't a local place, shipping charges
It was $50 per caliper, should throw that in there. They also do $50 per wheel, and they do the nice piston coatings too. Hell they do anything that involves powder coating.

I saw their work first hand on many things - they do a FANTASTIC job. You guys really need to get it out of your head that everything has to be expensive for a fantastic job. Pity I cant post a name, but here's a couple examples of their work.

Sorry dude, you will never be able to convince me that I should be paying $570 for something I could send these guys for a fraction of the price, and just as much quality.
