For future reference if you are looking for a great price on brakes, you should check out www.OnADimePBS.com They have an entry level Wilwood BBK for well under a grand. The owner, Alex, is very knowledgeable, if you contact him, feel free to tell him I sent you his way. Good luck with your new pads, rotors, and lines, let us know how they work out.

but I didn't spend anywhere near a grand. My wear indicators just started squealing and I figured I do a little upgrade. Just to make things clear. When I said "tax rebate", I mean the one that is coming in May. My tax refund could have paid for a BBK and then some but it went towards granite counter tops instead

Your rear tread is hurting to say the least.

AWESOME Karl... Congrats on the upgrades (for both the car and the Kitchen). No wonder the mods on the car have been light. You have done the smart thing and put that money into something you both will enjoy and gives a higher resale value... That's the smart choice. Shame you can't drive the SS dishwasher on the tail though... ;-) :-p
Looking forward to the ZdayZ one way or another.
