Gxp E-Brake
I have a 2005 GXP where the e-brake components have rusted out and the parts seem to have been discontinued, has anyone else had this issue and found a solution? Not sure if there's other cars parts that might be compatible, I remember reading about an upgrade path for the front brakes but I'm not sure about the rears.
I'm kind of stuck, any info would be greatly appreciated.

This has been an issue for years. Here's a thread I started about backing plates back in 2020. As you can see, not much information about solutions back then either. I ended up salvaging what I had left of mine by treating the rust and coating it with an undercoating to be able to keep the parking brake. They're not whole but they've lasted me four more years now. These cars are just so rare that it's not profitable to repop GXP specific parts.
