haha..I was going to ask if the OP did that on his pictures or if the shop wrote on the car. Never seen that done before.

Wow...Lots of new toys for the 3gen GS members this past week.

Cant wait to see it finished.

I think it's standard practice. My mother was rear ended on the highway a couple of years ago but the car wasn't totalled. It went into the body shop to get repaired, when it was done she noticed that she could see her license plate number in relief under the paint where they had written it (probably in some kind of crayon?) and some dumbass painted over it.

Needless to say, they had to strip and repaint that panel again.

LOL,

I'm not sure what is going on the with crayon on the car and all the notes. They are going to detail it when it's finished.

As far as the brakes, they are JBT. 380mm front 6 piston and 355mm rear 4 piston. You can get them through Jay and his email is cantch@aol.com . Thanks again everyone, I appreciate all the feedback.
