I had my car in for a bum right rear caliper and my mechanic says
that GM discontinued them. I looked online (PFYC and others) and
all I can find are the front ones in red. Nothing for the rear.

Anyone have a source? I'd appreciate it! Thanks!

Try Morad, he may have some used ones.

Pardon me if I'm wrong (and I'm pretty sure I'm right), but the CompG calipers are the same as the "regular" calipers, just painted red.

And last time I looked (not that long ago), Morad did have a complete set of them.

But if I were you, I would just get new or rebuilt ones and paint them accordingly. Using someone else's used calipers doesn't seem wholly satisfying in my mind. I'd at least replace the seals if you go with the used ones.

^^^I'm almost positive they are the same as well. Just get some rebuilds and paint them. Don't go chasing a unicorn and paying out the ass for it.
