Everything may seem to be fine...but if you have pulled the puck out of the caliper then the rubber seals need to be replaced. Using the old seals is asking for a leak, which can lead to brake failure.

You can get a remanufactured caliper from NAPA or the dealer...that's probably the easiest instead of rebuilding the caliper yourself.

Don't skimp on the brakes.

It wasnt the seals it was the piston their was bur in it.. would it be better to have honda rebuild it and replace the piston or just buy the refurb.. or buy one from a memeber on here.. how much would it cost for the first 2 options?

Refurb is $70 from Honda. Not sure how much NAPA would sell it for, but probably $10 less.
