    Yes mine are faded already, thats why I want to do something different. And powder coating them makes them very durable and last a long time, color wise that is. I did a set of Corvette Calipers and after 2 years they still looked like the day I got them :) I found a shop here in St. Louis that takes off the calipers, cleans them, sends them over to powder coat, they even put the Brembo sticker on and clear coat them and send them back, then the shop reinstalls them and bleeds everything, the owner of the shop is a drift racer so he knows his brakes. :)
