CoZ- wanted to get your take on the correct orientation for installing the plate bracket- FSM calls for it one way, folks here are doing it the opposite as well.

Thanks!

Yeah, I tried both ways on that one, they both seem to work I usually install them opposite of the FSM.

2 more questions for you- with the HPS pads- would you recommend keeping the Hawk shims or using the OEMs? Looks like the OEMs would fit just as well. Plus, the rears have the two-part OEM shims.
Also, looks like the StopTech drilled+slotted rotors are labeled such that the slots sweep brake junk inwards toward the hub- so the slots "lead" at the outer edge of the rotor- wanted to make sure this made sense.

Thanks again

^ What's important is the direction of the inner vanes. Make sure it "whisks" the heat away as it turns, rather than scoop the air in.

Gotcha- thanks. On these StopTechs the vanes aren't directional, so I'll just install as they're labeled.

Did you finalize the prices yet for those standard colors? (checked on the website but there was no add-on option for color)

Thanks again.
