You should have bought them on the website I showed you in the DIY. $68 each.
Good news BTW, the fronts are done on my car, I forgot to get the tool for the rears, and it's raining right now so I can't paint the rear calipers yet, but when the wife gets home I'll go pick up the last stuff and finish it tonight. I might not bleed them till tomorrow, but either way, it's looking GREAT.

Duh...I missed that. Lucky I didn't order any calipers yet.

Well, I didn't get started till about 11 this morning, and I forgot I needed the caliper tool for the rear, ran out of brake fluid and didn't think I had enough brake grease. I finally got 3 corners done today and will finish the last tomorrow, then rebleed the entire system.
So far, it looks frigging amazing.

Just got back from the shopping I had to do, going out to do the last corner and rebleed the full thing.

Tis all done. Been installed since last Sunday. I'll be putting everything together and cleaning up/fixing the DIY this weekend.
Hawk pads still haven't shown up yet though.
