Looks nice. I think I'm gonna get those pads when I need them again. I'm getting sick of brake dust. Are these dual piston calipers.

now you need 17" 0r 18" wheels it would look better. did you bought the install kits or drill/tap the calipers?

the calipers finned side might rub inside the wheel little bit (nothing that i wouldn't worry about). when i put 16" grand pee wheels on i can see some small lines inside the wheels, but again on the fbody you might not have this problem cuz on the c5 calipers all the fins are all on the top of the calipers where as the fbody is on one side of the caliper.
