The owner of this car wants the calipers powdercoated to match the interior. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

After splitting the rear calipers I fully disassembled everything and cleaned them, except for the parking brake arm and shaft which I don't know how to remove. It seems that there is a rubber seal or something in there that won't survive the heat but I can't figure out how to get it apart. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Anyone have experience with this?

The front M calipers have those thin machined pieces as well as the halves. I wonder if I should bolt them together with something thin in between the pieces. Any good ideas already in practice that someone knows about?

Chris,

Are they using a High Temp Powder Coating or regular powder coating?
( 1000° vs 400° )
