Default Is this a good deal STI BREMBOS??

hi all,
Is this a good deal, Im looking to buy a set of front 2009 STI Calipers.
ive been offered this set for about $800 do you think their worth it?
Now I/we can see the condition, they come with pads but no mounting bolts.

Once i get a set of rotors to suit I know they are a direct bolt on for the MY10XT forester.








thanks for the help
Andy

Correct me if I'm wrong American Dave but I don't think they are a direct bolt up solution a fair whack of modification pm Doug aka DTRALLY on here as he did the last conversion.

Front are fine. Rears are the issue.

$800 is probably little rich without rotors or rear calipers, especially since they are scratched badly.

no doubt someone would pay that kind of money for them though

Actually its not a bad price for front calipers imo. Can easily get them cleaned up and re-painted for a few hundreds bucks. These MY08 Sti Calipers do not come up available all the time either. Rear rotors will need some tickling but the front bolt straight on.
