Thanks for the compliments everyone. I found out that since the fronts are 380mm they come drilled.

Dude mabrook!!

I love that rear diffuser, where can I get it?
The diffuser is just part of the Job Design rear bumper. You can email Jay @ cantch@aol.com. He is the one that got me the kit at a much better price than anyone else offered.

oh man where can i order that kit....?????how much also ???
You can email Jay @ cantch@aol.com. The kit was about 1k less than what the F-Sport is going for.

how are the JBT brakes? not too familiar with this brand..
JBT is the same as Rotora. The only difference is packaging. It's personnal preference I think since the Rotora's a anodized and the JBT's are painted calipers. Fitment is the exact same though.

Thanks again everyone, I appreciate it.

Yes, 6 piston front and 4 rear. I was going to go for the 8 piston front but, thought that would be a little over kill.

The wheels aren't exactly black, I stole these from MrMark but, the finish will be the same. His are the GS-3.

Hey Ron,

Thanks buddy, much appreciated. I still don't know if I am going to keep the car yet. I just want to complete it then I will decide what to do with it. Parting it out won't be an option though, way too much trouble. I should hopefully be home sometime this month so I will get everything done to include painting the engine bay. How you been?

My wheels and tires came in now. Thought I would post a couple of pics. Hopefully the brakes, wheels, tires, and some other stuff should be on the car in the next week or two. I owe my neighbor big time for all of this.
