C5 brake upgrade update

Just got back from the machine shop with the modified wheel hubs. Now the front rotors fit great and look mean. I still have to replace the lug studs then take some more pics.

Will keep you updated.

Were the wheel hubs slightly larger diameter? And please provide details on how you're mounting the calipers?

And like others have said . . . PICS, PICS, PICS PLEASE
