    I can get a caliper rebuild kit for $8 each for the rear calipers (each kit only services one caliper) from Napa. Can't ever find the fronts (Impala/Monte fronts), but I can find them for F-bodies which I'm switching to anyway.

    Now I gotta do some calling around. Thinking about going black on the brackets and silver on the calipers.

    There ya go, two tone is kinda cool for paint colors.

    If it matters...I don't even waste my money on parts store replacement/rebuild parts for the rebuilds I do. I just don't trust them for the quality you get. I use only GM parts. Costs more, but knowing whats in there lets my mind at peace.

    Fair enough. I'll consider that when it comes time for me to do it.
