Yes, it was well worth the money. I'll have to bust micah's chops about those pics. You guys confused me...i thought you were mentoining the brackets as an extra part. Total cost after the core return was $360 IIRC. Definitley an improvement. With some better pads front and rear I should be golden.

FSVT Bracket?? All we needed to do the install was the caliper/rotor and you can use the stock bolts on your car to fasten them. I still have the bag of lock washers I bought from home depot...I have to get a pic up of it so people know what to buy. I also think Chris A has alot of pics during the installation of them on our cars but it's REALLY self explanatory anyway. They sure do fill up the wheel nice don't they?
The CSVT bracket wouldn't clear the big rotor. With the CSVT bracket sitting on the rotor the bolt holes on the bracket and in the nuckle were way off. There is no way they will fit on a larger rotor with a braket designed to space the caliper away for a 278 mm rotor. The FSVT bracket is a little taller and fits up perfect. I have a bunch of pics including a great series comparing the 2 brackets. I will post them when I get home from work.
The FSVT calipers come mounted on FSVT brackets. they have a number "24" stamped on them. Are you sure you are not using the brackets that came with the caliper? Chris, you have to be!
They fill up the wheel great!! I love it!!!! I have some pics of the washers. I will post those too later! And yes the car was on jacks in all the pictures. I have yet to take pictures of it on the ground.
The calipers and brackets are an 'all-in-one' design. We did use the FSVT brackets/calipers as a whole. I love the look and the upgrade was just a clear path, to me at least. Most bang for the buck. 
I'm like Roger, I like factory upgrades, when possible.
Edit: I didn't take one picture, Micah did and he has disappeared, so no pictures from our install Chris.
