Powder Coating

I'm getting ready to powder coat my calipers on my SL65 so my question is does anyone know the part numbers for the seals or rebuild kit for the calipers? Or did anyone leave the pistons and seals in as they powder coated theirs? I'm thinking the seals couldn't stand up to the heat from the bake oven. The dealer wasn't exactly helpful when I called asking them.

Just give them a call I guess cause the site doesn't list SL's?

I want to coat my rotor hats now too and am curious if the nuts can be reused or have to be replace? Has anyone powder coated their rotor hats?

Thank you. I asked because I've seen some aftermarket 2 piece rotors that recommend replacing the nuts.
