yea to the best of my ability with brake cleaner. the bottome where pads go doesnt really matter, just the outside, itll look good once done.

Ya man that's a better blend of the 2 colours man!! Looks awesome... do you need the rotors and pads now or did you get it all from Matt? When are they going on?

And i know I'm slacking... new brakes won't go on til the suspension is done... so we need to talk again lmao!!

This really makes me miss my old ho. I had baer brakes on it for the first month or so, and man they are great. These cleaned up real well too, enjoy them.

Thanks man, the paint I used, the light blue is from napa they said it was a ford color. (Lightest blue I could find, and matches my fender stripes well) its just high heat engine enamel. Rated to 500*

The black is just rustoleum high heat (500*) gloss black engine enamel from Lowe's.

Brakes can get pretty hot, so high heat is a must.

thanks nas, and tim, i havent tested them out yet, but the brake pedal is much stiffer then it was with the stock setup.
