EBC it is

just will have to pain them red so it doesn look like xmas tree on my wheels couse calipers are gona be red


ok why not get redstuff? its not ceramic pads but rather

Not sure about the red stuff vs green stuff but I've heard that the red stuff pads need to warm up to brake well which is not ideal for most DD circumstances.  Then again the diagram seems to suggest otherwise.  Not sure, perhaps more input or research is needed.  

They come with a set of black shims.  I would still recommend painting the pad but I would choose black over red.  The contrast is nice.  That's on my list of things to-do when it warms up.  Here's what they look like with just the shims.

that was case when they used to be ceramic, now they are fibre with ceramic .
i would probably get red stuff but they didnt had them on ebay so i got green stuff, total was $58 i think

now have to find same thing for back

gona pait black then, not sure yet

Skippy has EBC Green Stuff all around and love his set up, FYI.  That's why I'm going with EBC rotors and pads when I do my brakes again.
