LF: A shop to paint or powder coat brake calipers in GVA?

Can anyone recommend a shop in Vancouver (lower mainland) that will paint brake calipers properly by taking them off. Looking to do them in Daytona Yellow and perhaps stamping brembo on them. Also what is the best finish for looks and durability, painting them or powder coating them ? Looking for a gloss finish/coat.

Lastly, how much mula would something like this be?

thanks,

Not sure if prices will vary a lot for you but i was quoted around 300-400 for doing all 4 corners.
This pricing is for GTA area.
Ended up painting them with high heat paint for $50 including brembo stickers.

Really depends on the shop you go to so ask around. I highly recommend powder coating vs. a spray can as powder coating will last you the life of the car and way more resistant to chips/scratches.

I'm also in the GTA and I did a set of Nissan R32 brakes about 7 years ago for $250 with vinyl lettering - I rebuilt them myself with new OEM seals for about $25. These were also 4 pot front & 2 pot rear - came out great!
