Default Reman Caliper OEM suggestions?

I'd like to replace my old rusty calipers with remanufactured and coated ones. Checking rockauto they have a couple available:POWER STOP S2808 Performance Red Powder Coated; Front POWER STOP S2730 Performance Red Powder Coated; Rear
There are also some are black AC Delco ones and A-1 CARDONE ones that are grey with "exclusive weatherproof coating".

Does anyone have any experience with these?

I recently had to purchase some Integra Type R calipers for my Integra, and I heard a lot of negative reports about the Powerstop calipers having seal failures with them melting due to heat related issues. The Powerstops look nice with red paint but they are poor quality. I'd go with the other options, I got the cardone versions for my car, they seem decent enough and the price was reasonable with some warranty.

I usually just go with the Centric ones for all my cars and call it a day.

Find some used OEM and clean/paint/rebuild them. The Honda rebuild kits are cheap.

I don't have experience with those but I have one from Autozone and the coating on it did not even last a week before rusting.
