Default Powder coated brake calipers

I was thinking of powdercoating my brake calipers red and I really havent seen anyone doing this. Ive seen them painted but I think powdercoating looks more professional. I was wondering what other people think. I know someone that owns a powder coating bussiness and I was also wondering how many other people would want their brake calipers or other parts powder coated. How much would people be willing to pay to have there brake calipers powder coated? I was thinking of doing a bunch and selling them.

Rick's (a board sponser) was offering PC's brake calipers and stopped because of poor sales.

I think it looks great, but it is expensive to do right. You need to get them powdercoated, but then you also need to rebuild them. Check out http://www.hardtopguy.com for rebuild kits.
