Brembo Mod for 08 TL Type-S ?
Where can I get a rear brake Brembo Mod for my 08 TL Type-S? I called around to Tire Rack and several local parts stores with no luck.

if you want a big brake kit for the rear, rotora makes one for our cars. IMO it isn't worth it since the rear brakes do not do much braking at all. Spend the money on making the front brakes better with a Wilwood, Rotora or Stoptech BBK and get some better pads and rotors for the rear.

I believe the rotor is slightly larger and the caliper has more pistons in it or the same amount depending on the kit you get.

Just out of curiousity is this a "look good" goal, or a "work good" goal? Because you'd be better off getting a shiny black powdercoat and the word "BREMBO" painted on your stock caliper than you would get any braking performance out of upgrading the rear calipers only.
