You should check the prices in your area - even consider a junk yard to get replacement calipers and rotors.

If you do the work yourself you will be way ahead of the game. If you have to have them replaced at a repair facility - let them know you have your own parts - also when getting quotes ask for the amount with tax, etc included.
Alot of repair facilities have, what I call "hidden fees" such as hazardous waste and shop supply fees which can be a flat rate or a percentage. It is to their discretion what they want to charge.

Thanks!

yea after looking at this, you may be better off buying new calipers and painting and installing them than trying to rescue these ones.
