looking good bluelex - thats a fine GS you have yourself there ;)

do you have any close ups of your rotors?

I have EBC rotors on the front of my IS, but standard rotors on the rear, so I am looking to even it up, and your grooved / slotted disks intrigue me <_<

my car 50% plastics tint on it now, which i like a lot... but thanx

plastics? Could you explain what that means, exactly? Hmm... Maybe I should ask in a new thread.

cheers buddy - I may be able to get away with them - the EBC ones are below

these would look reasonably similar to the casual observer

what pads do you have?

how do you find them (rotors and pads)?

not worried too much about performance, as

1 - I don't drive like a loon

2 - the majority of the braking on the IS is done at the front.

I am really interested in evening up the look of the car (shallow I know :blushing: ).

any links to where I can buy them, costs etc?

Yah Blue...your ride looks pimp. My compliments.

One question for everyone....?

Am I wrong to think my GS looks awesome stock? Don't get me wrong...most of the GS rides ive seen here look sweet. Maybe Im turning !Removed! or something. :D I just like the stock look for myself.

Just wondering.

lol..thier is nothing wrong with stock.. it just depends on the individual.

Yeah I agree with blue referring to it depending on the individual. For me the problem with stock is the fact that if the car is popular you will see all these cars on the road that looks like the attack of the clones. I strive to be different and I feel that adding mods add to the cars individuality and in a way mirrors the owner personality and taste. But stock is cool I wish there were more stock Hondas, people do some weird things to those rides to set them apart  .
