    Quite tempted by these. Does anyone have a rough estimate how much it might cost to fit them on a facelift VR-4, if I took them to say Pitstop or Midas and said stick these on for me please? Already have Evo IX rims so clearance of wheels will not be a problem.

    This set looks the best to me:

    if you do a proper job,

    strip the old paint (using paint stripper),
    new paint (hi temp)
    new brembo stickers,
    clear coat,

    this takes a week to do, (allowing full paint curing time between coats)
    painting over the top it crap, it wont last,

    i recommend septone paint stripper (NOT the spray can one), and septone brake/drum spary paint,
    get this from super cheap, i found the repco stuff was ****,
    stickers from trademe
    and dulux clear gloss (from bunnings)

    (i have done 3x full brembo paint jobs, and found this the best way)

    and it takes more than two hours to fit brad, set aside 3-4hours,

    remembering you have to remove the rear brake dust sheild,
    and change the rear brake lines to the evo ones,
    and bleeding 8 nipples (2 on each claiper) 500ml to do the whole system (if you dont waste/spill any at all),
