Actually, these will stay cleaner than regular stock calipers. Dirt falls right off of chrome and chrome doesn't get nasty and scratched like polished stuff. That is why I don't sell polished items.

As far as the cost....EXPENSIVE...

Brackets - $375.00
Calipers - $875.00
Rebuild parts for calipers - $50 this is for all new seals, etc. for them. That is my cost on the kits (optional)
Pad covers - $125.00 (optional)
Shipping - $40.00

Total - $1465.00

This pricing is for a 5-6 week turnaround. You want them quicker? Add on another $350 and I'll have them done in 10 days. Quicker than that? Take a loan out.

Jeff, just finished one. They are not for the faint at heart when it comes to taking them apart. Lemme get this one back together and make sure it works properly. Heck, I had to spend $100 on tools just to take the SOB apart. It is COMPLETELY crazy on the inside and unlike the LS1 bodies. Of course, this is my first one so I'll probably do the next one a little different on the disassembly. Definitely want to try one locally before I offer them up for sale.
