Default If you just get a FRONT SET UP BBK...

What do you do w/ your rears? (for the non-brembo calipers)

Do you change the rotor out so it matches the front? (either slotted/drilled)
Do you paint the rear caliper to match the front ones? (ie: RED)
Do you do nothing?

I'm just curious what others have done aside from upgrading the rears also to a BBK.

Thanks

I have an AP Racing 6 piston 14.25" bbk up front and OEM rear (non brembo) has that half of the stoptech stage 2 upgrade (slotted rotors, pads, and SS lines).

I left the rear caliper black (had previously painted it when I had the stoptech stage 2 all around) even though the front calipers are huge. But my car is a track car and I'm not concerned with it looking too lovely.

+1, slotted rotors on the rear with calipers painted black. I tried to make the tiny brakes in back disappear.

I would leave the rear OEM spec. and save the cash for a rear BBK.
