You can get the calipers from Amazon and hot damn are they cheap!
Last time I checked, our OEM calipers (2 piston sliding) were well over $250 each. One side (not sure which one) CTS-V caliper (4 piston fixed) is $101.31 shipped. The other is $126.38 shipped.
Good luck.
EDIT: This site sucks for links. No I did not post four links. *sigh*
Ignore Amazon's image for part number 172-2287. It's the correct part.

it'll work you just need to check your wheel clearence. For the impala you'll probably need some wheel spacers
