Well damm, I already replaced the rear brake pads with some KVR- Carbon Fibre.
They sent the wrong size for the large front pads so I had to wait. But now there in and we realized the front rotors were really worn down. So before we install the New front pads I had SP ship out some Brembo\KVR Cross Drilled front rotors. Damm these parts going out! laugh
BTW the the SS Braided Aeroquip lines look sweet.

How much were the lines, and what exactly tipped you off to the rotors needing replacing?

Just asking cause i'm trying to figure out if I NEED to replace mine now.... even though I have big brake kit plans to go with my rims wink

I didnt notice anything significantly wrong until I took the Front pads in to be put on. I was told the rear rotors were fine but the fronts were worn down past specs. I figured what better way to tell my girlfriend I need some new parts. again.
Anyways the brake lines were from CTA Motorsports
Aeroquip: $50
