New D-Spec Struts and 6P Brakes for my GT/CS
Had a couple of hours to spare today so I got busy on the install.
OEM brakes and Steeda Pro Action Struts:
OEM Caliper and Rotor removed:
Baer Radial Mount Bracket installed:
Baer 6 Piston Caliper, 14" Rotor, Tokico D-Spec Strut and (not in the picture) Maximum Motorsports Caster/Camber Plates installed:
Baer Stainless Steel Brake Line:
So far so good, if the "Time Gods" are with me I will tackle the Driver's side tomorrow and bleed the brakes.

Rick, yes pull the trigger. That color will look fantastic on your car not to mention the improved braking. In Canada I paid $1950, but I think the Shelby logo ones would have been more so your $1780 is a good deal.
I went with Baer Decela Slotted and Drilled Rotors in the rear, they are OEM diameter. It was a tossup between the Decela’s and Baer 14” Eradispeed Plus II, I chose the OEM diameter to keep my options open for 15” Drag Radials.

Finally completed my front brakes with the installation of Agent 47 Brake Cooling Scoops (2005 -2009 Shelby GT and California Special) and the Brake Cooling Duct Kit. Installation was pretty straight forward, with the exception that I needed to trim the driver and passenger side brackets that secure the Vortech Water Cooler Assembly to clear the Scoops and Diverters.
