Default Brembo calipers?

Where can I find a set of front 5th gen Camaro or 04-07 CTS-V brembo calipers? Ebay only had the whole set.... I just need the front ones for brake conv. Sale section on here is dry for these.

If you have any sites(non-sponsor), PM me please.

You can not run the rear. They are fixed calipers and they don't mix with c clips axles. I am looking for a set of rear to do a mockup when I am building my 8.8. To my knowledge no one has done the rears yet. Also, I did the front and love them. The conversion isn't had at all, just a little machine work on the center of the rotor. Other then that it's bolts, bleed and go.

I've got a 9" (that's right I said 9") so I should be good to go if I wanted to do my own conv for the rear.

Parts ordered... CTS-V calipers and 5th gen rotors on their way. Now I just need some brake pads. Probably go with some ceramic ones. Once i get this installed then I can take measurements for wheel fitment.
