For real?? Why?? Please tell me why. Im so confused right now. Is this even real? This cant be real. Someone slipped rufees into my drink and I am trapped in a dream where someone would actually consider paying 180 dollars for some MADE IN CHINA garbage that makes your stock calipers look like a Faux big brake kit. Its your money and you can do with it what you want but consider this,,,180 dollars will buy a really really nice hooker that will do allot more for you than just reduce caliper heat and brake dust. If you know what I mean....wink....wink......

Spend that $180 on some braided stainless brake hoses and have a real mod instead of something fake.
