Ok got the fronts done today. Unfortunately I was told I should get the rears as well.... So here we go again next weekend.
First frustration was realizing the dealer never gave me the bolt key..... so $30 later
Nasty! I wonder if they had ever been changed at all.
Comparison:
The brake pads on the left had over half the pad the the ones on the drivers side were worn allot more. Dunno why though. But no more squeaking so far. I hope Brembo makes them for the rear!

Not really anything I could tell but one was way used up haha. Um they just want me to have everything done now rather than later and the rears are pretty used up as well. Makes sense to me to do them now.

Not for me. Never heard or seen any threads accept something about a shaky caliper DIY fix. But changing the calipers for what? There is no quote ref. You mean because of the drivers side brake pad being more warn than the passenger?

Great job... let us know how this brembo rotors working out for you, Im actually planning to buy front rotors soon, Im still on my original but already turn over once with 80+ miles already, experiencing very slight vibration now, so still debating between OEM-sewell and aftermarket, see photo below...

I even put my eyes up to the window and tried to see. 0... inside it's dark too lol! Sheesh.
Last one is when I got home.

Here are a couple from last night. It's way dark lol!
First one is the contrast with the interior lights on and the second is looking at those same lights from the rear window.. I know these are petty mods but still it's exiting to me.
