The automotive specialist lots of guys used closed down a year or two ago. I know a few guys went here:

https://ascoweb.com/automotive-and-m...orts-services/

I believe ASCo is going to need the calipers removed and dissembled, in which case if you are going to do that, you can also use some of the mail-in places as well if you want.

Unfortunately, the guy I used (mail order) doesn't take new customers anymore, or I'd recommend that route. Still need to remove, but he would return the calipers assembled.

Let us know who you end up using.

Thanks for the recommendation, but unfortunately that won't work for me. I need a place that'll take the brakes off and reassembles. I'd rather pay someone for that responsibility.

Brembo brakes. budget of about 500-600. I've found a place that will do it within that range....it's just that they're about 1.5 hours away!

I do not go there much and am not much into cars but I do know that Manasas has some national level car restoration garages. This is the area I would concentrate looking.

Yes, they ask you to send them the calipers...and then send back the finished product.
Looking for a one stop shop.
