Where is the best place to get the callipers refurbished

My front ones could do with a refresh I would do them myself but would want to get a few prices first

My back ones are horrendous all the paint has blistered over time so will need to doing too

My honest recommendation is.. buy new calibers front / rear.
I just bought new front calibers from @renaultpartsdirect , rear calibers came from mister-auto.
Then you can sell your old calibers in ebay.

I would say total price was approx 400£ for set of 4 calibers
I sold my old front calibers 180£ / pair.

I would buy new also if you can get a discount. The dealers normally want your old calipers and offer a small refund if you do. Failing that BiggRed or The Brake Caliper Specialist, I used the later on my 182 calipers, I bought the cheapest calipers on eBay then sent them off so my car wasn't off the road as it can take a few weeks depending on how busy they are.
 
I'd also say it would probably make more sense to buy new and sell your old ones. You could also upgrade the fronts to MK3 Megane RS brembos
 
Thanks for the input guys,

I may just buy new ones and repurpose my tatty ones onto the 182 track car
