I removed the old chewed up rotors and pads, ordered new ones, and painted both front and rear calipers with gloss black caliper paint. I might even use my mystichrome touch up paint to highlight the COBRA lettering on the front calipers after I put everything back together.

I also removed the lower isolators on the front springs and repositioned them better into the lower A-arm spring perch stops (they originally weren't seated properly cuz they're a bitch to get in with the lower isolator on there). That'll hopefully give it just a bit of a raked look with the H&R Race Springs I have on it. If it's too raked I'll just remove an isolator from the rears too.

Once I get the calipers, new rotors, and new pads installed I'll mask off the chrome wheels and spray some black trim paint on the inside of the rims since the factory grey paint and chrome underneath is starting to bubble and peel. The wheels have some high miles on them (bought them to replace some ugly flat black wheels) but they were a great price so figured I'll dress/darken them up and protect them before they get any worse. Should look better with the gloss black calipers too.

I drove 3 hours to meet with SVTPmod 04sleeper for a retune. Was definitely worth the trip and funds. Kevin knows his shit!

Installed LED license plate bulbs. Small, inexpensive mod, that for some reason makes a big difference. I think it looks cool.
