I thought both of your comments on this thread were stupid, especially the first one about using plastic Brembo covers over the stock calipers. Who said I building my car to Auto Cross? The fact is I just think the stock floating calipers don't look good even though they work fine. My car stops just fine now. I am presently using Ceramic pads which have no dust and are easier on the rotors than semi metalic and intend to put ceramic pads into this set up.
