Some won't let you do that if they have a do it yourself garage.
I thought your pictures were a bit futuristic until I realized you were on european time

lol yea. its stuck in my head. 06mar2007. it jus comes out as 06-03-2007 on the camara. and i've never had some one say something about working on the car in the parking lot. and i dont think they'd pay for me to leave my car at the Craft Shop (as they call it here) over night.

well, its looking good so far. i'l get the pics up tomorow night with luck. so far the driver side is done, painted and rotor and pads are on it. looks very very nice. gotta touch it up some tho... putting the pads on scrapped the paint up some with the spring clips. too easy to fix when i paint the other side tomorow (today since its now 1am here, jus got off from job#2). i cant wait to drive it and see how well it works.

jobs done and i'm liking it alot. talk about stopping power. brakes feel real good cruzing around town. havent got to play too hard with them to test out fade and stuff. but i can tell its got more braking grip. and even thru the steelys, they still look good. next weekend will be getting the whole brake system flushed out for about 30 bucks at menikee. with almost 86k, its probly a good idea. and i still need to repaint the drums and adjust them real good. but that will probly after i get back from school in april.
