Hi Bob,
You have probably seen that the consensus around here is to use OEM brake parts. I'm sure they work great, but I bucked the trend. I put Mintex pads and Zimmerman rotors on the front about two weeks ago. They are quiet, stop great, put off very little dust, and were cheap too. It was super easy to do myself, and I must have saved at least a few hundred $$. The step by step instructions are on bay13, easternaerospace, and in the Haynes manual. I got the parts from www.fcpgroton.com .
Good luck,
Rick
