Default used brembo brakes, to good to be true?

Found an add on CL for Brembo front calipers rotors and the lines, pulled from a 2011 GT. two questions one, will these calipers fit on the 07 gt with 18inch rims. Also beyond the calipers rotors and rubber brake lines will I need to purchase anything else to install these?

Edit: Forgot to put how much the seller wants. which is only $100 for the setup

All you really need is the calipers, rotors and dust shields as they will physically bolt right up and you can reuse the stock brake lines. The only issue may be with wheel fitment as not all 18 inch wheels will clear.

Shouldn't this be in the "too good to be true" section? If they are off a 11 GT why is there a picture of a Brembo box? The Brembo stock wheel has almost no clearance between the caliper and the inside of the wheel.

Yea I don't see why he would have a brembo box if they were take offs.

that was my thought as well. rereading his post he doesnt state them as take off just "2011 brembo front calipers and rotors"

the boxes for take offs don't make sense. when you offered to buy them, did he ask for you to send payment electronically and he would ship them? 100$ is way too cheap for them, and everyone would know that.

I found my brembos on craigslist for 450. I got everything included. Just call the seller up or go visit and scope it out. cant hurt anything, especially for $100!
