That's a lot to spend just to have someone go Ooooooooooh!!!!
Especially when caliper paint will only cost you between $10-20.
LOL, you got me! Yes, I meant caliper covers. I was thinking the same darn thing. $180 is a bit crazy. Hmm...now just to decide on a color. Looking at my car, I think I'll stick with the current theme...BLACK!

I am just happy to finally have gotten something for the Camaro. With all the home improvement projects going on, this was a breath of fresh air!

I know this thread is slightly old and all but I have ordered from a company called Silver Stone. here.. -->eBay My World - silverstonemr*

I have ordered three separate times for three separate vehicles with no problems. They have rotors, pads and even braided stainless steel brake lines.

Rotors and pads I paid under 200 CDN free shipping. Here are a few pics of the front rotors.

Sure...now you tell us...after I've already ordered, LOL! Seriously, though. They look nice and I'm glad you've had no worries. I'll let everyone know how the Tommy Boy Brakes hold up once they're installed. "Callahan Brakes."

I figure the drilled and slotted parts of the rotors are so the pad has areas to cool, but I rather have the area of the slots/drill holes to be filled by more rotor surface. I believe in fullface rotors

Well, I've had the Callahans on the Camaro for a couple of weeks now and I have to say I'm pleased with them to this point. I purposely hammered them one day to see how they'd respond and didn't really notice any significant fade. They also really set the car off nicely.

On another note, I had all the lights checked & replaced. I also replaced the slow power window motor on the driver's side. He also looked into the tranny, as I felt there might be some sort of issue, but nothing seems to be wrong.

I'll post pix once I wash n wax her.
