I would go to ONE6 Motorsports in arlington heights(I think). There customer service is awesome and I have seen alot of cars with there stickers on. Those cars are not ricer mobiles, they were very nice looking cars....I plan on getting my BBK put in from them...

I got my coilovers put in at SpeedQuest performance in Waukegan...they did a good job, but something about them makes me not want to go their again....I dont know why...

I will most likely go with Rotora also, but Im trying to get a different brand. Lets just say, these brakes look awesome and if they are compatible, I will be the first to have them
