My R-Sport has standard calipers, and I am calling around for estimates on powder coating them to be Glossy Black, to match the Black Pack (thanks for the idea GRVR.) I just spoke with Classic Powder Coating, in Maryland, who tells me that it is roughly $100 per caliper, but you have to get them off the car and disassemble them, and then put them back on, which will end up, all told, costing $2000, yes, you read that correctly, two thousand dollars. Does this sound reasonable? He also said that in a perfect world it could be done in 5-10 days, but I should allocate up to a month, depending on when his mechanic next door can make the time to come in and get the calipers on and off the car. This sounds ridiculous. How do other people go about getting the calipers to be a new color? No way, I can give up my brand new ride for up to a month.
