Hi, wasn’t sure if anyone would know if Polestar 2 brakes would fit a P3?
You may Ask why would I do this? I like the look, so mainly cosmetic over ugly stock brakes.
And they are really affordable compared to

genuine P3 polestar brakes or after market brembos or Rotora

Here is a link for an example

Those Alfa brembos would work if I cleaned them up and had them painted! I can not read the form though lol. And I am thinking he was only able to fit them to the front since the back brakes use an electronic parking brake back there that would not work I would guess. I would think a light would go on the dash or a message stating electronic parking brake does not work if they were set up for use on the rear. Wish someone sold a kit or could guide me through this. They look identical in size and shape to the old 04 to 07 R Brembo brakes. Was told would need a S80 knuckle and some parts in the past to make them work.

Yes, only the front. Never talked about rear calipers. The R and Alfa calipers may look the same, but they slightly differ (mounting, etc.). Polestar S60/V60 models use the same rear brake setup as the T6 ones, except they have different, more aggressive pads. If you want larger rear brakes with 4-piston calipers and functional parking e-brake, then your only choice is the Rotora kit.

Any idea if ALL Alfa Calipers 4 piston are direct bolt on then for the front? I know you said buy an adapter just know idea what I need.

And also wonder if all Alfa 4 piston are all the same, can get a cheap set on of Alfa 4 piston on eBay now.

I did email the guy from link you sent but not sure if he will respond.

Rear is fine I can always have the stock sanded down and painted, saw that done and they came out nice.
