Hopefully I can get my brake kit installed tomorrow *Crosses fingers,* I really don't want to wait until Friday.....

P.S. When I was calling shops around for estimates on installation of the kit (Don't feel like stressing out Moog with the install) the first shop I went to quoted me $550 for install!!! The second shop quoted me around $150-$200, so I was pretty content with that. But then I decided to call this one last shop (redline in arlington) and they quoted me $75 for EVERYTHING (Rotors/Pads/Brake Lines/Fluid)!!! Not just that but they said it would only take like an hour or two to finish, while all the other guys quoted me 4-5 hours. Does this sound too good to be true?

If you do not get it done I have a shop at the track and we could do it in the morn.
Just an offer.

Okay guys, everything turned out fine. They took about two hours, and charged $67. The only negative to them was that I noticed my rear left tire was put on with some camber so it looks like this / instead of | . The camber isn't SUPER bad. I actually didn't notice it until the car pulled to the right slightly on the highway. I'm just going to jack it up tomorrow and fix it, should take 5 minutes.
Soooooooooooooo
