The pads or calipers aren't StopTech, the brake lines are. Car looks awesome Johnson!

If leaving the front end at that height is because you're afraid of scraping the front lip, don't be a BPB. (big ***** boy.)

Other than that, car looks GREAT.
cant tuck exhaust in anymore. exhuasts were custom and the can wouldnt allow any more tuck before hitting something. i already sliced an inch from the exhaust. but thanks.
