[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 14654259, member: 6247"] I'm guessing that Brembo kit is in the $4-5k range!? Not to mention the fact that you're adding a significant amount of rotating mass and unsprung weight to your already much too heavy vehicle. :uh oh: Also, as with any solid axle and fixed piston caliper brake set up, you will also have pad knockback issues. If you don't like the look of your rear calipers we offer new Ford calipers with custom paint: [IMG]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/FT%209645%20-%20S-197%20rear%20calipers%20carbonweave%20%20powdercoat%20.jpg[/IMG] We also have GT500 custom engraved 2 pc floating rear rotor assemblies. These have hard black anodized aluminum hats and clear zinc plated custom engraved floating rotors. Here is a photo of the rears: [IMG]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/FT%209650EG%2013-14%20Shelby%20engraved%20rear.JPG[/IMG] [IMG]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/FT%209650EG%20Closeup.JPG[/IMG] We also have matching fronts as well: [IMG]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/FT%209220EG%2013-14%20Shelby%20%20engraved%20front.JPG[/IMG] [IMG]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/FT%209220EG%20Closeup.JPG[/IMG] The fronts rotors are unfortunately not suitable for road race or open track duty because we cannot get a heavy enough casting with enough mass for that. However they are perfectly suitable for street, strip and even standing mile applications. The front rotors alone will save you a total of 23# of rotating mass and unsprung weight over the OEM rotors. The rear rotors are suitable for road race and open track duty but the rears don't save nearly as much rotating mass and unsprung weight as the fronts. All of the above parts can be found on the 2013-2014 Shelby brake order page on our site: [url]http://fulltiltboogieracing.com/2013-2014_Shelby_Brake_parts.htm[/url] I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
