Well boys only a month or 2 later and I noticed one caliper is chipping already. Could've been me and not applying enough clear but I think I may be getting them professionally done so I don't have to worry about this again.

Chipping already?! That sucks. I have been debating on getting mine powdercoated too.

I contacted TCC on this thread. I like his work.

His work looks great, but I just worry about taking the caliper totally apart. I've heard that it never is the same after you take it apart.

Just use the duplicolor caliper paint kit, it's a ceramic paint, I've used it for years on all of my cars, and just re-did the Evo's....looks awesome, and costs $16 at your local auto parts shop.
