Redog Fails state inspection

FIRST TIME EVER I had a car fail inspection.

It failed for front brakes, everything else is fine.

Just got my front rotors and pads from Summit today. I bought the Summit brand slotted and x-drilled like I have now, but I bought the Bendix Semi-metallic pads with the blue break in crap on them. I was running "Evelotion" pads, but I figured the Bendix were better although the others were ceramic.

I didn't even know for a fact the brakes were going. The rotors didn't warp, there is a little bit of grinding, but very little. Another first, usually bad brakes make the steering wheel shake like a mofo when stopping

So it's off the the powder coating shop to get the centers powder coated and then on the car.

When I go back to the shop, I just have to pay $2 for the sticker. The car passed everything else, including emissions
