I've got front brakes!

Hey Guys, I got my front brakes installed today. I powder coated everything on Saturday, but ran out of time to install on bug. Looks like I'm going to change fenders(2 inch wider CCC) or get some spacers. The wheels are still under the fenders too much, about 1.750 of an inch . Will know better what to do once I get the rear done. Anyway, here's some pic's of the brake set-up.

P.S. Please ignore the rest of the car though. It needs some work. The calipers still need the pistons, pads, and retainer clips installed. I just couldn't help my self sticking them on now.

Thank's for the support guys. I don't think I will have problems stopping now. Now if I can get that 2.5L typeIV built, I think I can go!
