Yea, thats why it costs so much. steeda.com has the front ones pretty cheap and I'm sure you can call and order the back ones for alot less then direct from baer.

That was the problem, I call steeda, brembo, wilwood, and no one sold rear brakes. The Roush brakes I got came right from Roush. The baer brake kit that I was going to get was the best kit they make. The price of the brembo front kit was $3,200 and the wilwood where $3,400 for there front kit.

Thanks, even GM people love the look of my car

Thanks, I love the side exhaust. I just took these pictures.

The rear calipers are the same, but the kit came with the brake pads, brackets and the rotors for the rear.

I just made a sound clip of my car, but I have ever posted a video yet on the site. I have to read how to post a view, if I don't post it tonight, I will post it tomorrow night.

No, I never tested it 60 to 0. I just got them Friday, so they have a 500 mile brake in. When the stock brakes where on I had to put the brake paddle 3/4" down to stop coming down the highway ramp. Now with the new brakes I just have to tap them to do the same thing. The rear brakes do nothing, but I wanted the look.
