if your abs control system is not working, the replacement is hella expensive. Better just to suck it up and live with the stupid abs light flickering on sometimes... it will eventually turn itself off.

I'm installing Bendix Ceramics on my car soon. I'll give a full report after I've broken them in.

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

The pads didn't move, but they did look glazed.

Not bad pads for spirited driving but hard as a rock when cold. You have to be careful, they need a couple good warming stops before they bite. I've rolled past my girl before cause I forgot how little bite they have when cold.
And if you only put then on the front, be prepared for your rear pads to wear out quick. My rears with stock pads front and back, showed almost no wear after 40k+. Once I installed the KVR's in the front. They were gone within 10-15k miles.

KVR=worst pad ev3r! They are not a street pad. At least the carbon fiber. Not to mention the pad fell off the backing. Ask rkneeeshaw too.
