Rubber guide bushing replacements

Anyone use these from Detroit Tuned? I was thinking of using their G2 paint system for the calipers and want to remove them to make them perfect instead of painting in place. While I'm at it I wondered if this would be valuable.

This kit will eliminate caliper twisting caused by rubber guide pin bushings. This kit, consisting of precision guide pins and machined brass guide bushings will allow your calipers to squeeze evenly on both sides of the brake rotor, just like expensive multi-piston big brake kits. This will result in much longer pad life and more consistent brake system feel. A must have item for anyone! Sold in sets of 4. You will need to order 2 sets to do a whole car, or 1 set to do just the rears on a BBK car.

Sorry, I think I should have placed this in the wheel, tire, brake forum. Anyone know how to have it moved there?
