just take yours off and get them powercoated at a shop. My brother did it to his t/a, I think he paid something like 150 for the front and rears.

Why dont you get a set out of a junk yard and send them out for powder coating. that would probably be cheaper then buying brand new calipers

take wheels off, unbolt calipers, take braket off, remove rotor, tape off wheel well and other parts, clean calipers, rub down with some 400 grit sandpaper, clean again, paint!
