Richard, do they use the ATE/BMW seals or their own?

Do what I did with each of my CSL's. Send each of your calipers to Stainless
Steel brakes Company. They will make SS pistons, SSs sleeves for the bores
and rebuild the calipers for a lifetime of trouble free enjoyment. No more
pitted pistons or bores, no matter how long they sit up.
