Oh man, I'm honored! Totally not worthy though, since there are a million other MS kitted 8s out there, I look just like the next one!

Documented my install...

I was really torn between the Racing Brake's black and red BBK. In the end, I decided on red because the high gloss black would clash with the satin black finish of the GTS. I'm typically not a fan of the red painted calipers, but since the front Racing Brake calipers are red, I had to paint the rears to match, using G2 caliper kit.

Before:
Man my brakes needed some TLC.

Very nice! The upgraded brakes and rotors are sick. Wheels look good also.
