I would change out to some Hawk pads and change the fluid. Dont really need SS lines at this point but what I have found is it is better to spend the money now then have to go back and do it later.

I would do the Hawk HP Plus pads, SS lines, and Motul RBF 600.

Probably feel like your going to get thrown through the windshield compared to the stock crap brakes.

I don't know if I'd do the HP+ pads for a DD that sees occasional track... I've got the HPS and even those dust really bad. It looks like I have gunmetal grey or anthracite finish wheels up front compared to my rears after a day or two after a wash. I would imagine the HP+ are even worse.

Has anyone had any issues with trashed dust boots? I'm running HT10's in front and HP+'s in the rear. One dust boot on each front rotor is cooked. Can these be easily replaced, or should I just buy some new take off calipers?

Thanks,
Edward
