I saw that--looks fresh. I've always liked white wheels.

So my LONG 3 day project came to an end today haha (front/rear rotors and pads)

Day 1: got home from work, jacked car up and broke all the bolts loose, but then found out there was no c clamp or cap compressor.. so had to wait till the next day

Day 2: grabbed a C clamp from by days work, so when i got home got the fronts done super quick since everything was loose already. get to the rear and for the life of me can not compress it with the c clamp or a big screw driver. So i call it quits and go online and try to figure out whats wrong on forums. Read " seized piston common problem in b5 s4" Dammnit!!! look at other thread and they said has to be pressed and spun at the same time.

Day 3: (today) on my way home from work stop at Autozone and rent the pad spreader thing that will push and spin and what do you know the piston isnt seized (correct tools make life easy). Quickly get driver rear done. switch jacks to passenger side get the rear done in like 15min tops (felt like a pro) then i get to the fronts which ended up taking 1.5--2.5hrs because of an issue i ran in to. Thread here Got it all done will some perseverance and now im just waiting on new coolant hoses.
