Certainly look the same as my 2000 x plate AUM caliper kit.

Are you planning to get these cleaned/prepped up and fitted, then use the spare paint up on your old set before you punt them?

Have you started cleaning them up yet?  Go steady with any hardcore cleaning, stick to the visible surfaces.
What state are the seals / pistons in?
