What makes the Brembos more costly to coat? Surface area? or does the paint know the difference in their pedigree? lol

...Well, the ATE kits cost about $15 US per piston (one in each caliper)

Brembo's have FOUR pistons per caliper, and the kit is $45 US for EACH piston... you do the math. (I had to do all four corners on mine $45 X 16 = ) small price for your safety.
