    I've been otherwise occupied for the past several day so my apologies for the tardiness. Yes I bought these calipers for my wife's 04 XJ8 And they came off an XJR as I recall. Evidently this messaging app doesn't allow me to just upload pictures from my computer. I'll try perhaps to send them to your phone if it's a smart phone. Either that or I can send them to you by e-mail.

    Let me know.

    Jacob, Bob Minor here, I logged on tonight to get some information about reflashing and ECM on a friends 2001 XK8 and tripped over your search for some Brembos. I bought a complete set with the idea of installing them on my wife's 2004 XJ8 but I never did the job and I'm now getting ready to sell it. This is a complete set and if they will work on your XK8 after your do some checking they're available. On the XJ8 at least that switch required also swapping out the front wheel knuckles to accommodate the Brembos and the new geometry but I suspect they'd not work on our XK8's (I have a '99 XK8 as well).

    Anyway if they used the same Brembo calipers on both models which would make sense I have a set of nice ones that have been boxed and stored inside for several years. I paid $400 for them without the front knuckles and I'd like to get close to that. I'm not advertising them anywhere so if you have an interest I can send you some pictures I took when I bought them.
