Default My A8 brakes are on! PICS ADDED

Just wanted to say that this was a very easy mod, took me 2 hours, could have been a LOT quicker had I done it in daylight... Trying to fumble with one of those damned snake lights in the dark. Hahaha!
They look great, and I did it fairly cheap all things considered... I bought the Audi TT caliper carriers used for 125 Canadian dollars... and then bought Zimmermann cross drilled rotors (For a 1999 Audi A8 4.2 Quattro) from a Canadian seller for 180 bucks CDN. So 305 CDN and my brakes no longer shake, and they look pretty sweet! I know this is one of those worthless without pics threads... I'll try and get some up today!

EDIT: PICS ADDED A FEW POSTS DOWN

Must see.... did you have to use hardware from the A8, or did the A4 hardware workout?
