I thought I had, but I was using the different sites to check instead of going to the PowerStop site.

Anyway, since I was running short on time to get everythying done before my temporary registration expired, I had to go to a local shop to get the work done. After a broken caliper bolt, cracked brake line, and stuck bleeder nipple, I'm golden and glad the shop worked on it and not me. BTW, I think the rotors were original to the car! 17 years and 66K miles later, they are replaced. I've had the car almost 10 years and hadn't had to replace them and I don't think the PO did either (maybe he did, but he didn't provide much paperwork and they sure looked age appropriate). They still seemed to work fine but failed the inspection because the inspector didn't like the look of the pitting and surface rust (worse on the inside, so it wasn't apparent by the casual look through the wheels).

Tomorrow I'll do the reinspection and finalize the registration. The process is a bit annoying, but will be worth it once I hit the unlimited section of the autobahn!
