OMFG, I am pissed right now.. I just had my 14" Brembo kit installed about a month ago and the backs are going on this week.. If the StopTech kit will fit on the front and back of my car then my Brembo kit will probably be in the classifieds real soon.. That looks bad @$$

The rims look too small now Great upgrades. How does the rear parking brake work with the new rotors? It's the internal drum brake design, but your rotors look the same both front and rear?

Rear parking brake works fine. You are correct that the rotors are the same but the hats are different.
