    WPR sounds like a quality outfit. Price charged for the 4 calipers?

    I have no problem with the theory that all men are created equal.
    But after that moment you are on your own and nobody owes you a damn thing.

    I did my own.

    Plating ~$25/pair since is was part of a bigger order.
    Brake kit $12/each.

    Don't split the caliper unless you have new seals in hand as they are hard to get. The plating process is not great enough to cause problems with the piston bores. Blow out with compressed air and then warm in a oven to evaporate out any moisture.

    Gold line brakes is another vendor that can help you.
