No, those are already removed. Where the caliper bolts to the adapter bracket for the suspension spindle, it's steel inserts pressed into the aluminum... similar to what you'll find when you redrill the bolt pattern of a wheel and steel inserts are pressed in.

These can't be removed and may prevent me from refinishing the caliper surface.
