Just one pic....




If all goes to plan, these should be in by mid November along with...
-Powerslot rotors
-Hawk HPS pads
-SS Lines
-KYB GR2's
-SSC Lowering Springs

by the end of November I should have
-SE front Lip
-Saleen Black rims 18x9

If someone wants to buy a Blackberry Bold 9000 for AT&T let me know I have one for $300 (+ paypal fees) shipped

Not bad those cars certainly need a brake upgrade over the dinky stockers.

bigger then my hands, probably about 10-11" long but they are so friggen wide. Thats why I'm glad my new rims are 24mm offsets

Its only a 2 piston caliper, but just one piston is bigger then a 5th gen front piston on the calipers.

I'm keeping the 12" rotors, which is what I currently have, they will just get an upgrade to something better then OEM.
