DC Metro area: Where to get brake calipers painted?

Anyone have any recommendations on where to get a professional quality (not a DIY thing) paint job done on brake calipers? Have a Gallardo and the stock calipers are black...want to get them painted red with white lettering. Lambo of Washington says they can do it...quote is roughly $300 per caliper, but wanted to compare other potential places in the DC Metro area?

I'm in no rush, but wanted to do a little research on this 1st.

Try D&V autobody, I believe they do allot of collision work for Ferrari and Maserati. Their shop is the cleanest shop I have seen and customer service is top notch for a body shop. Ask for Ron Maharaj, Manager ron@dandvautobody.com and tell him Jim sent you.

Thanks Jim. I was wondering if D&V is where L of W actually sends this stuff to, anyway?...lol

I'm open to more suggestions, also. I usually use Wagonwork for painting my stuff, so will check with them, too.

I have heard that Mike Anderson sold Wagonwork to Pohanka, and the quality of work had gone down the tube. I do not know this for fact, just something I have heard from some people in the business.
