New brakes for the S

She needed them... 54K on the original pads and rotors. Pads were toast, maybe 2mm left. Rotors had huge lips on the outside. New Zimmermans and Pagid Sport pads, but I did not install any vibration dampeners. After a quick bedding the thing stops on a dime. Easiest job in the world... given what the local shops charge, I paid myself over $100 an hour to drink coffee and beer, listen to music, play with the dog, and work in the garage. Nice.

Took a couple random pics along the way. Thought you all might enjoy them.
