Just a heads up to anybody who has not installed these yet. The silver washers that come on the bolts used to bolt the calipers to the bracket, they need to go in between the bracket and the caliper. This gives the correct spacing on the calipers so the rotor is centered. You are going to have to bend the brake shield also otherwise the calipers will not fit (see the second picture). Other then that, its a pretty easy install.

Dammit I was just gonna say that!! Oh well. You missed a few spots. Obviously you're not as good as me at spray painting.

*spray paints anything if its the wrong color*

It was brake paint and that damn stuff comes right off when you handle it if its not baked on. So that is where alot of it came of. I just want to hide the "steal me" blue and was not to consirned about the way it looks. I thought about getting them re-anodized or powder coated black. But after closer inspection, the pistons looked like they would be a bitch to get out and put back together. I might still do it when my car is out of commision while i am doing the final drive.
