I installed new stoptech brake pads today. Easiest pad replacement I've ever done.. it's so nice working on a new car! All the bolts come loose with little effort. Plus since the stock pads are still so new, I didn't have bleed out any fluid or force the pistons back in to make room for the new pads. They just slip right in!

I hope they bite better than the stock pads.. I have not been happy with those.


I installed my side skirts today as well. These are Bayson R.. same as the ebay stuff. I am pleasantly surprised by the fit.. very nice. They included 10 self tapping screws and four bolts w/ washers and nuts. The front and back holes on each side can take a bolt and secure on the inside with a washer. The 5 holes in the middle use the self-tapping screws. I drilled a small pilot hole in each place and then screwed them in.

Next project will be the rear valance and rear spats. Maybe tomorrow?

I still want to do brake lines in the near future as well.

Also, I'm still waiting for my stivo spoiler to come.. that's been a very long wait. Hopefully it will come soon.


Still waiting for Megan Racing to release their dual tip exhausts.
