I got the powerstop remanufactured brembo 4pot/2pot for a 2008-2017 STI on my 2018 WRX I found online for less than $800 with pads, calipers (red powder coated) and drilled and slotted rotors.

I also do highly recommended the power stop brand calipers...And their customer service is excellent. I had a problem with one...They sent me a new one anyway. They do stand behind their products.
I bought new Power Stop calipers. I have not been able to get the brakes fully bled since then. The pedal was really bad. Even after multiple bleeding attempts, including by a shop, it's not perfect. My power bleeder also couldn't seal with these calipers.
Red Power Stop Performance front and back calipers
Power stop reman parts are trash. Only buy them if you’re planning on re-rebuilding them yourself with oem parts. Out of the multiple sets of calipers, all of them had issues like seals not fitting or being torn up, blasting media left inside the caliper or slide pins, pistons being scored or rusted, etc. The red powder coat was decent though lol.
Be careful Powerstop calipers are just remanned calipers. Poorly powered coated. Paint came off the first winter and one caliper seized up in under a year.
I have used Powerstop Calipers Brake kits in two trucks. A Chevy 1500 High Country and Honda Ridgeline. I agree with you on detail esthetics but, these are great performance quality and the brake dust residual is so much better. Also they do follow through on their rebate offers. I touched my calipers up with paint.
Had them installed and im quite underwhelmed. Sloppy paint work and having clips not even color matching is making me want to put my stock ones back on.
Recently i had a 5 month old powerstop caliper leak and my brake pedal hit the floor. No warranty outside 90 days plus there was no availability for ordering another set!
I do not think the calipers are anything special. Just powder coated. I had issues with them (seizing) and replaced with refurbed oem Chrysler. Running the powerstop rotors with EBC Green pads. I would just upgrade pads instead of rotors and calipers If could do it over again.
