Value of stock 05 brakes on the used market?

I'm so incredibly tempted to get a set of Wilwood brakes for my new 05 6MT, but the price makes that impossible. However, selling off the stock brakes would be a big help... Has anyone seen what a fair price is for stock brakes with less than a couple thousand miles (my car has 200 miles so far...)?

Thanks for any advice!

prolly a couple hundred, stock brembos are worth anywhere from $1000-$2000 but the other brakes are booty

I know they're not great, but I was hoping the larger rotors might make them worth something to someone with an 03-04... thanks for your thoughts!

Its not only larger rotors, but larger calipers and pads as well. Front and Rear have been upgraded for the 05.

Does anyone know if the '05 calipers are single or dual piston?

The '05 calipers are dual piston in front, single piston in rear. I took my car to the track 4 days ago and cooked my rear rotors. It seems like the bias is somewhat heavier in the rear.
