Brake calipers
I have a brain fart, Im going to be doing my brakes this weekend can anyone tell me if the GXL's had 2 or 4 piston calipers on the rear? Dont remember seeing anything on the rears in here. I know the fronts have 4 pistons.

That link doesn't describe the rear caliper itself as 4-piston, it's referring to the rear caliper applicable to cars with 4-piston fronts. The upgraded rear caliper body would be wider as it fits a vented rotor (the base models brakes are solid rear rotors w/ different, narrower caliper body).

I have the 4 piston calipers on my GXL, so assuming the decription is right I will have to purchase them. I plan on getting new slotted/drilled rotors from ebay.
