Calipers and brakes

[2011TAURUSSEL]

I guess this would be an upgrade. Just ordered a major brake overhaul kit.

A1 Cardone Calipers semi loaded from NAPA. The dual winters here in the Northeast finally took their toll on the red paint. I tried to get down to metal and start over again but found that even worse. Ordered from NAPA and all were in stock. I had ordered a set off eBay but the fronts came with the dark grey rust preventative coating applied but rears did not. This would be an eyesore to me having some metal and some dark grey calipers. NAPA was in stock and had all four with the same coating. Their powder coating was Black but they were all consistent and all in stock.

Brake Performance ceramic pads with Black Zinc coated slotted rotors.

MGP Caliper Covers: I need to re order. Original vendor from eBay not in stock and UNKNOWN in stock date.

Post some pics of the new kit when it arrives/gets installed too bad the stockers were in such bad shape! Was the eBay price for MGP a real deal?

If I post photos then that will defeat the purpose of attending Carlisle for the big reveal. I didn't just fall of the turnip truck.

MGP covers run pretty much $179-$199 everywhere on eBay. Some vendors throw in the tacky matching key ring. The original vendor wanted a $100 to change from red to grey. I will check MGP website. I prefer grey but not for extra $100.

How about trying Amazon instead?

Same price as eBay and I also can use my eBay 6 months same as cash. I am actually in conversation with alternate vendor to see how much the Ingot Silver or Sterling Grey with Red or Blue ford Logo is. If a substantial increase then I will just go with Red and Silver Logo.

FYI 2011 and 2013 TAURUS SEL are one in the same. I set up a tapatalk account and it wouldnt let me use the same screen name so I had to change a digit. If post comes from 2011 it is here. If posted from 2013 then it is tapatalk.
