    Indeed dude. Powder coat is far more stronger than any paint.

    I am sure it is better but, how much better for a item of the car that never get's touched. They make Caliper paint that holds the heat. Just not sure how much better it would be compared to the additional expense and effort.

    Don't get me wrong, doing it the right way, powder coat, is always perferred... I am just sayin... Ya know?
