Default So, how do you think my car will look with these stickers?



That's right, more stickers on my WRB Billboard! StopTech's going to help me out w/ a discount on my brakes in exchange for running their logo! I rule!

..and now that I've got a daily driver, I'm not stressing over the attention the car gets on the street. It's the attention on the track that I want!

Yes, I'll fix it for you. Again.

That is so much cooler than pimping a tee-shirt.

How big? And where are you thinking of putting it?

I can't imagine it's a giant sticker or anything.... it's not like they're giving me brakes for free.

I'm guessing it's one of the 12" or 18" decals. I think I'll put 'em over the front wheel wells, which is where most people seem to run them.

You know you wanted the stickers. I think they'll look cool. When do you the get them (the brakes)? Oh ya and I'd start a roll call with the Stoptech stickers. You know you'll be adding to it in the future.

Are they selling you both the front and rear kits?

You can get them in blue, red and black. Which color?

I'm trying to get a set of the 332x32 fronts w/ red calipers.

However, StopTech is all out of stock on everything for the WRX, and won't get it in until the 30th! Best case scenario would be getting them Friday morning, then installing them afterwork Friday night, *then* driving out to Lovelock! :shock: If they can get them ready just a day earlier, that would make it all the more possible.

I'm waiting on StopTech to call me back so I can figure all this out. Hopefully they can get a set in a little early, or I may have to buy Andre's BBK yet!

Actually, I don't think the stickers made it into the package! There's one big box per front wheel. Plus a box full of pads and fluid, and a box for my rear rotors.

My pads wore out, so I went with Project Mu' pads and Stop Tech Rotors .. maybe it's the "RICER in me huh? ..

Ps: Speaking of Ricer.. I also had a Turbo Timer (like mine & Sperry's) and an HKS BOV installed on the WRX (Thanks to the knowledge and patience ..lol of WRS PILOT.. Good job man!!!)
