How much should it cost to get brake calipers painted?

Nov 08, 2006 by Tom C | Posted in Other - Cars & Transportation

I was looking into getting my brake calipers painted. I have a 2006 volvo s40. I was going to do it myself, but i realized that if i screw it up, i'll be pissed, so i'm curious as to how much you think it will cost to get professionally done. Thanks.

If you get it done professionaly you would prob pay for about an hour of someones time (40-100) and supplies (5-10).

It actually is very easy to do it yourself. Make sure you sand it down and everything with a wire brush.
