I should bed the pads. Do you have a procedure you use for it?

Enjoy!

I'm stuck between black and red myself. You think I would have it figured out by now after staring at pictures of 5th gens for 4 years.

Congrats! Nice summary. Looks great. I wouldn't be able to sleep all night... like having a new toy!

Enjoy it!

Man that is a sweet ride. Going to talk to a dealer Saturday. They got one on order in white with a tpw of 11/19.

Love it! Can't wait for my white one. Damn the suspense is killing me.

Best brake thread ever.... http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=255868

There is a procedure listed in the owner manual. Didn't read the brake thread so I don't know how it differs, but I saw it in the owners manual online last night.

It is in the owners manual. Cool. It is quite involved, more than I have done in the past for race type pads.
