Brembo big kit
Hello Gents!
Quick questions.
I have those brakes on my C5Z front and rear big brakes.
i'm looking to see what would be a price range to sell tho for? i'm looking to get on some smaller wheels and those have to go so i can put stock caliper back on.
Un sure of the model of the brakes.
Thoughts?

Really depends on the overall condition of the individual parts.
The buyer may be faced with rotor and pad replacement, so that might be a negotiating factor.
It looks like a GT kit, which is a pricey setup.

Agree, looks like Brembo GT. The Brembo big brake GTs are much larger and would not fit with those wheels. The GT kit is pricey new. No idea what a used set would go for.
For reference, these are the Brembo big brake GTs.

Don't the Gran Turismo kits utilize six piston calipers?

There are more than one front kit out there. Brembo sells GT 355mm 2 piston and 355 3 piston kits for the front. You can see above, the OP has the 2 piston and the picture I posted has 3. Very little price difference between the two. Both kits are expensive!
For the front, I think the OP has this part number: 1B2.8006A2
This is for the 3 piston: 1M2.8013A2
The benefit of the OP's kit, it fits a smaller wheel. The 3 piston kit calipers are huge and takes a very large wheel.

Sorry, I miscommunicated. When mentioning 2 or 3, meant 4 or 6 (2 or 3 on each side of the caliper). Even though both are 355's, the problem is the size of the caliper. The 6 requires a larger wheel to clear the caliper.

The six-piston does not require a larger wheel. Caliper height is the same

I see the problem selling them for a decent price as being that you can put together a new C6Z06 set up for around $2k, so for me as a potential buyer, that would place used Brembos below that figure.

What brakes are on your car? Just because some 18" wheels will clear them, doesn't mean all 18" wheels will. You do know that,, right?
My former 19x10 CCW's would not clear C6Z brakes but my present 18x9.5's will. Wheel diameter is not the only determining factor.
