Pics of my brake paintjob

Just want to show some pics of my oem brakework. Dont pay to much attention to my not so nice brakediscs=)

Removing the right brake I snaped off both the nuts holding it, so it was a lot of work getting it all in place again.

I like the silver mazda caliper. I would of sanded down the front side of the rotors a little though. But nice job.
