Best option for calipers?- Msport non blue

Hey guys, sorry if this is a dumb question. I have a 2015 Msport 335i but it doesn't have the blue M calipers, just the gray ones. What are my best options for red calipers? Is there a caliper that's not $2000 I can swap out fairly easily? I don't just want to paint them cause most of the time that looks cheesy.

You can always purchase M Performance calipers in red color as service parts (not part of M Performance brake kit). They are also expensive at $650 per caliper. However, at that price the entire M Performance brake kit looks attractive.

Powder coating is another option:

Thanks for the reply. For $1300 a whole setup names more sense but I don't track the car at all. Looks like $250-300 for powder coating might be my best bet. I'm assuming I'll need to disassemble my calipers for the process
