For the front 2 calipers, new OE rotors, and new pads, I'd like to get $400 with free shipping in the USA. The calipers are from a 1994 E420 with 75kmi, IIRC. They have been meticulously cleaned & painted red with G2 caliper paint. I think it took me like 3-4 hours to clean & prep them and another 2-3 hours to paint them (two coats)... believe me, I was ticked off when I found out they wouldn't fit my car!

I'm not sure if I want to sell the rears or not. I may use them - I need to check and see if my 500E rotors will fit, if so, I may use those and sell the E420 rears. If someone wants the rear stuff in addition to the front, let me know and I'll measure my 500E stuff this weekend and see if it fits. I definitely want to sell the front setup since it won't fit the older 124's, including my diesel... They're not doing me any good sitting around!


Here's a lousy photo of the calipers:

I can take better photos of the parts if you'd like. You'll use the hoses on your car, I used the old ones to hang the calipers while painting so they can't be re-used (you wouldn't want to anyway - new ones are under $10 each and should be replaced every 10 years or so!)
