07 SS/SC - How do I tell if my car has dual piston front calipers?

Just as the title states. I don't have my car at the moment and need to order replacement calipers for it. I went to Napa and bought a caliper but they said it didn't show up as fitting my car when the typed in the vin#? They said my car is VIN P package??

Here's the trunk sticker if that helps:



When I type my VIN# in online it shows this caliper:



But the caliper I got from Napa looks like this:



Is there a way I can 100% confirm without actually looking at the caliper

Ok, in this thread: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/susp...64/index3.html

It says my brake code is JL9, single piston front caliper. He doesn't even HAVE a listing for the dual piston front calipers?? AC Delco Part Number: AC1722298 / AC1722299 Manufacturer Number: 172-2298 / 172-2299

Hmmmmmm.

All SS/SC cars have a single piston caliper.
