Smile Powder Coating calipers....Vendors?

I know many on this board have taken the stock calipers and had them powder coated to the "Big Red" flavor. Looking through the archives though, I'm not finding who you are using. I would certainly prefer someone on the west coast, but could really send anywhere. I do intend on leaving the calipers intact (pistons, seals, dust covers), heat be damned.
Your expirience in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Try Al Reed in Anaheim. He'll paint/powdercoat/polish almost anything with "Porsche quality" for "non-Porsche price". Do a search on his name and you'll find his number. If not I can look it up.

He can polish your muffler tips to a mirror fihinsh for $20 too.

There was a rennlister on the 996 board who was powdercoating brakes for others...you may want to do a quick search...posts were about 3-4 weeks ago.

btw, with your grey car (nice color!) I think yellow calipers would look hot!
