*Ding* Brakes are done!
*Ding* Brakes are done!
Well, it'd been a while since I did brakes myself. And I did Awesome's with the help of my brother (he's good people), and this:

Everything torqued to specs, done as specified, including the wheels. I love my torque wrench!
I hadda put a left rear rotor on, as the old brake pads didn't make noise... and I wasn't watching.
But the new rotor's on, the ceramic pads are on, it's all broken in... stops great, maybe a little better.
Very happy with the brakes on these cars, in that they're pretty easy to deal with.
What's really nifty is that the slight shudder here and there I did have is completely gone. Smooth braking, stopping, no worries.
So... yay and stuff.
Ok, back to your regularly scheduled whatevers.
/oh, and Louie, I'mma gonna fix the paypal and get ya a few pennies. Thanks man!
