Since it is pouring outside and not looking to clear up until tomorrow, here are a few shots until I can get a good shot outside tomorrow

Nice. I'd be interested in how you like the AP setup. I've heard nothing but good things about them. Did you do front and rear or just front?

I am very satisfied with the brake kit, I too have only heard good things and thats why I went with it. It installed very easily and in only about an hour and a half. Im not doing the rear because im not doing a proportioning valve and the rear is a low % bias. I may just do a rotor upgrade.

Those pics dont do the brake system justice. Those are 20 inch wheels and 15 inch rotors. They look small in the pic
