Anyone know about XJR calipers?

If its just surface rust your not liking, why not get them electroplated, I use a nice gold colour on the brakes I restore for XK's (original 1950's flavour) E-Types and Mark II's, they look really smart - I'd avoid powercoating calipers as they have a hard life and plating looks better. You can have a choice of silver or gold or gold/green depending on what types of plating your man can offer.
Or, you could paint with a heatproof enamel paint, after wire brushing the rust off.
I think it's a bit extreme buying new when they're just rusty.
