Or is my best bet to return what I bought and just order the complete racing brake kit which has vented pistons and dust Boots and seals for $250 each side?
As mentioned prior, the pressure seals (not the boots) are included with the pistons, whether you buy the vented ones or not. That said, the boots are cheap (PN 19207044). Same PN for all the big six-piston fronts.

Thanks, once I realized that I only needed the boots and not the seals, the answer did become more obvious.
Now I just need to confirm they ordered the right parts, thanks for the part number!

My mechanics said the front caliper boots were very melted/destroyed but the seals seemed ok.

Any idea how often the rear calipers should be rebuilt compared to the front? In terms of replacing seals and boots?

I just posted up “better boots” in the 1le section but I just purchased vented pistons as well unfortunately the majority of pistons has bad nicks/dents/scratches so I’m waiting on replacements :

Anyway the centric kit I just got from Amazon has the Centric aka StopTech grey silicone boots.
