With your experience in this matter... should I be concerned not using BREMBO parts in Brembo calipers? I do like the price of these...

No issue at all; brembo just bus them from someone else. As long as the durometer is the same and they're EPDM seals, they'll work.

FYI, I think Paragon has them now, too.

Appreciate the advice. About to drop off the calipers to be powder coated and was researching the effects of the oven on the inner seals. The powder coat guys says they will melt. So before I did it I was going to make sure I could find and afford the replacements. Thanks a bunch.
