Default Baer Rear Brake Upgrade.... Finished

Before and After photo. What do you think? I will be posting a how-to on this in a couple of hours. It was a pretty easy install.

Shoot. How do i get a larger picture in the post?

P.S. I was going to paint the rear rotors with the Duplicolor caliper paint, but was told that there was a major recall on it by Advanced Auto.

Looks nice man... How much did they run you? Do you have baer brakes on the front as well???

I haven't heard anything about the duplicolor stuff from AAP. I used it a few months ago and everything is fine.

Looks awsome. I need to do this also but finding it hard to spend $1500 on a brake job.
And I just searched the Advance website and ther is no mention of a duplicolor recall. Google has nothing either

Well that sucks. I went to AAP on Friday to buy stuff for the oil change that I did while doing the brakes and wanted to pick up that paint. I looked around in the store and could not find it. One of the people that worked at AAP told me that they had to pull it off the shelves due to a recall a few weeks ago. May be it was something "localized?!" not a mass recall. Who knows, they probably just didn't have any and that was their excuse.

Anyways, I boughtthe rear upgrade from Brothers Performance w/hawk HPS rear brake pads.Brother's wasthe cheapestI could find and the grand total was around $350 to my door.

Iwas going to do the Baer front upgrade, but decided to do the cobra upgrade with the baer decla rotors. I pieced the kit together and paid around $550 for the front.

Attached is a photo of them too.1sloblckgt: How did you get my pics to show up like that? I am trying to put my "How-To" together and would like the pics to show up like the above.
