how much does it cost to have them rebuilt? I'm not putting them on for quite some time, maybe I can find someplace to rebuid them for me.

Brett, what technique are you using to paint the calipers? Obviously a spray of some kind but what brand or paint? Give me all the details. I got my calipers a few weeks ago and need to paint them soon and I want them black and glossy like yours.
No need to rebuild my calipers as they came off a 2000 LS

here you go kids. These are for TT brakes but the procedure for installation/rebuilding is identical.
