Until I pointed out that they already had these brakes, and the only benefit was the goodridge lines.

First day on the track with the new brake upgrade...I love them! No fade, great grip, very progressive, and very strong. Lasted all day, hauling my GT down from speed untill the very last lap. Track-day video:

Yes, rear SVT pads, came with the kit (14" front rotors, front Brembo 4-piston calipers with SVT pads, rear SVT pads, Goodridge steel lines) Plus I added DOT 4 fluid. I think it's an excellent value, especially if you track your car and you did not get the BBP to begin with. I can't say enough about how great this kit performed on the track this past Sunday.

You could always get the rear caliper brackets and rotors for a '13 GT500 and toss that on your stang. Literally just a caliper bracket and larger rotor from going up an inch.

I'd be interested in those part numbers too. It prefer oem parts for consumable items.
