I think these pads are better than EBC green stuff for dust and braking

I would agree, I have used EBC and many others i the past. The Hawks are the best for dust, they produce almost none.

Git'er done~~~
I took the picture 3 days after we put the pads on with about 100 miles on the new pads and rotors. I must say the lips of my rims were darn near free of brake dust where as before I could see the "pinkish" tint on them after driving only a short time. The finish on my rims are going to last longer too obviously because there's less corrosive material getting on them.

Yup John is the the shizz when it comes to installs.

We missed you at SLO but next one will be even crazier!!!

Let us know when you get your car fixed John and we'll have to make it another Gerry's night just to celebrate.

No, he hasn't contacted me at all yet. No missed calls, nothing, got a reference for another shop. They're in Mission Viejo but they have a good rep and don't appear to want to rip you off ( like Southbay)

That's not cool. Oh well, there goes that relationship. I don't play too well with flakers with no communication ability.
I've heard good things about that guy in MV though. It's Soley Bimmers or soemthing like that right?
