I've heard bad things about Big red refurbished

I'd look at brakes international, they sell seals pistons etc.

I bought refurbished calipers from them fir the rear of my 21 turbo.

I had them apart out of curiosity really and all is new inside. I wouldn't trust the other company mentioned to refurbish a caliper of mine, possibly if they supply seals and pistons etc then I'd buy from them and do it myself.
