Tech question: SRAM Road Hydraulic Road Adapter (IS to Flat)

The frame had IS mount and the fork has post mount. So, I had to pick. Have the front fit and an adpter for the IS. Or, have the rear fit and an adapter for the Post. I bought post mount in the eTap groupo. I ordered an IS to post adapter at the same time.

But now that I am trying to install it. It is flat mount. I can't find an adapter. Am I screwed? Should I buy an IS caliper and connect it and bleed the lines?

Does anyone make an IS mount for the bottom of my RED caliper (see picture)?

Here is a good write up from BikeHugger. It'll help you figure out what you need.

Should I just put on post calipers

I feel foolish. I had not idea there was a new standard of caliper mount. Some mistakes are more expensive than others.

There is a set of SRAM Red 22 calipers for 100 plus shipping

Easy mistake to make.

Pickup the set on eBay and sell the set you have. You will likely be even on the cost.
