Default new brake kit!

Hey everybody, so i just put my new 18' Motegi rims on my car yesterday, they look GREAT however the nasty looking rotors and calipers look terrible behind there... so instead of saving my taxes like a smart person... im gonna us them to pay for a new brake kit. I've been looking at Baer, they are somewhat in my budget and still have the look i'm going for. just wondering if anybody had any objections to Baer for whatever reason and/or if you recommend any other brand... any help is appreciated. thanks.

Baer is one of the top aftermarket brake companies. you will not go wrong getting them.

PS....do not get Baer brakes from Ebay. they are fake and will crack. Only get them from retailers.

when you say they look horrible, do you mean that the calipers just arn't shiny, because if they are in good condition then just take them off and paint them. Alot cheaper than buying all new calipers

the rotors, the callipers all look like crap. it's ok i was wanting to go with this look anyways the wheels just give me the inspiration to do it sooner than expected lol. im going with Baer Kit in the front, Baer Rotors in the back and new OEM callipers in the back

the cheapest full front kit i found was from AndysAutoSport.com and the rear rotors from ajusa.com i did a very extensive search and that's the cheapest i found anywhere. if you find cheaper let me know, but i don't think you will.
