Smile Refurbish 4 Pots

I'm going to get my 4 pots refurbished on my 2000 wagon. The two companies that I've been looking at are:

Godspeed Brakes & Bigg Red.

Are there any more companies that members can be recommended for the task.

Cheers

I whipped both the calipers off today, thankfully the previous owner that I know, had copper greased all the bolts so they were easily removed. The outcome is that 6 pistons are seized, badly corroded and will not move, all the dust caps fell to bits so...

I rang Godspeed brakes today and liked what I heard, they are going to refurbish the 4 pot calipers for me and hopefully I will be fitting them next w/e.

My wagon is blue with gold OZ superleggeras and I'm undecided on the colour of the calipers, red is a good contrast but currently thinking of gold calipers with the Subaru lettering in red.
