Default brake pistons
Hey guys,



I decided to rebuild my front and rear ///M calipers. I found the fronts to be in pretty bad shape. The boot on one of them wasn't on correctly. The piston has some rust and slight pitting. I lightly sanded and used my dremel to polish it up. I'll try again and see if I can get it better. I searched for some new pistons but can't seem to find any...



What do you guys suggest?

Before





After

Thanks! I ended up buying some new ones from rockauto. Only $16 each. Hope they last.
