F30 Brembos - PC or paint

Guys I'm deciding weather to powder coat or paint a set of front F30 calipers for my E93. I got quoted about $400 to PC, no quotes for painting yet.

Do any of you know of any cheaper options for PC or painting?

Haven't decided on a color, trying to avoid red since most out there have this color already. My E93 is white with red interior.

Thanks!

You can get the paint done and the work will be just as clean, with less orange peel. Make sure it has plenty of coats. Paint should cost cheaper, won't need to pull apart and rebuild. Of course red would look best but honestly any color will look dope. Choose your favorite. No bad choices.

I got quoted on calipers too, I didn't see the value in it.

Painting is definitely the direction I'm leaning on, just need to find someone who can do it. Don't want to do it myself.
