Why???

The SUV looks great as it is, if anything move the rims from 20" to 21", but thats entirely your choice

Mercedes will look for every reason to deny a warranty claim so definitely it'll void your brake system warranty if you disassemble it, powder coat, etc. but the rest of the B2B warranty should still be good. FYI, my front calipers were peeling the clear coat but Mercedes denied replacing them because I had an independent shop changed my brake pads. Mercedes said whoever changed it leaked brake fluid onto the caliper causing it to peel.

Mercedes will say and do absolutely anything just not to pay for repairs - i would have pursued it further and got them to pay for the repair/replacement!!!

There are a number of different shops and some mobile guys who paint calipers, you will be fine painting them and you won't have any warranty issues or function issues with paint.
I did mine on my C300 on the car and they turned out perfect. Also took care of doing a buddy's GT from Red to the Copper gold color as well in paint, and they too were perfect.
Powder coating calipers is not the way to do it, you basically would have to strip the caliper complete to withstand the oven temps to cure the paint, and stripping a caliper is not worth doing.
Not sure where you are located, but feel free to pm me and I can maybe recommend someone in your area. Hope this info helps.
