I just got my willwood rear kit in and am waiting for the fronts to come. ECS is great to work with and seem to be willing to give alot of advise for my install. I just enjoy working on this car myself. Anywho, This way I am leaving my front offset the same on my rims and the rear will look much better with the rear widebody and rims. The stock callipers look pitiful behind the rims right now. I know they dont make the car stop much better but I just cant look at them anymore.

I got the red which look great. My other choice for the price was the Z06 setup but after you add up 2 piece rotors and pad price and wear it was a no brainer. If I had the clearance I would have gotten the Stop techs, They are cool looking. But even the Wilwoods are more braking than I need for the occasional tracck day.

I will post pics after the front come in before the install then when they are on the car.

two happy years, much more stopping power, and no more rust splatting all over your freshly cleaned car.[IMG][/IMG]

I run the LGM thick .80" thick pad Wilwood caliper front and rear with Stoptech two piece rotors from LGM work great rotors glow in the daylight pictures. Wilwood makes a thick and thin caliper and there is a difference in hard use applications. Great service and knowledge at LGM which is another plus.
