Small update, found some new STI calipers for the front, swapping the bleeders was super easy, just applied some heat (heat gun for 5 minutes, this didn't ruin the paint) and the blinds came out with ease. The STI logo on a TRD car is no good, so I carefully sanded the STI of with 1200 gritt, without going through the black Brembo coating, applied an TRD decal and some VHT Caliper paint clear coat

. They'll be fitted next weekend

Yes I already have STI brembos but the paint is not that nice and thought it was easier to fit some new ones (found them for a good price) and sell the current ones later on
