Default OEM WRX brake parts

Hi guys, new here and new to Scoobies. Bought mine last November. 2003 blobeye WRX 5-door in black.

I was wondering about the second hand parts scene. With all those brake upgrades being performed I was curious about what happens to the oem brake parts.

I'm looking for oem front brake parts, in particular calliper mounting brackets (or carriers) for a 2003 2.0L Turbo WRX 5-door. My drivers side one seems particularly rusty.

Thanks.

They don't have carrier brackets , the calipers are bolted directly to the hub assembly

Therefore I assume that its the hub assembly that is rusty then. This is not a part that I banked on having to replace.

Any suggestions?

Wire brush the rust off and paint it , there is no need to replace it
