Powdercoat or Paint?
I want to have my brake calipers painted or powdercoated red. I heard powdercoating was better but most powdercoating places dont have a car lift and wont remove and put my calipers back on. Since I dont have access to a shop to take my calipers off and take them somewhere to get powdercoated, I am thinking of taking my car into a body shop to get them painted and put back on. Any suggestions?

don't paint, you will just be disappointed.
Powdercoating is definitely the preferred method. Talk with Mike here on the forums, he has a core set and can send you the powdercoatset for you to install and you send him back your stocks. Group buy, Sport Caliper Powdercoating

ya, i am first on the list for the powdercoating, he's waiting for some brake lines to install his big brake kit which will give him the core set to start sending out. I think there are a few people after me as well.
