What do you guys/gals think? Definitely cheaper this way than from GM or the local distributors. But my concern is "seconds".

The rears are useless, new GM front calipers were around $100 each from Team, not that long ago. Plus you need the abutments/pins/seals/clips, etc. Check prices on 'friction ready' calipers from Team or other discount GM parts houses.
