Powdercoating or Painting X5M brake calipers

I have decided to go ahead and powdercoat my brake calipers, as going to a BBK is cost prohibitive, and would prevent me from running my 20" snow tires and wheels.

I have identified a powdercoater, and will be choosing a color, but I need to find the ///M stickers i want to put on them, and I also need to identify what parts will be necessary for my mechanic to put everything back together after powdercoating, so this can go as smoothly and quickly as possible.

I thought doing a dedicated thread that could serve as a resource for other considering this mod would be helpful, so please post up your experiences, pictures of your finished product, parts lists or numbers, anything that would be helpful in this process.
