WMichaels - please keep us all updated on the green stuff pads, you thoughts, comments, feedback, etc. I've had my car for a week and just cleaned it this afternoon...now I know what everybody has been complaining about about the front rims being completely caked and blackened with brake dust. Also, let me know if you can actually see the green pads once they are installed, cause I wouldn't want green to be showing through. Maybe this really is the cure for the crossfire black rims blues.
