well.....there's ya problem.

driving along, and all of a sudden my pedal goes to the floor. pull over, get out and look and my pass. tires is coated in brake fluid. thought i blew the flex line again. NBD. new rotors showed up that day, so i figure id knock both out at the same time. this is what i found.


not good at all lol. thats what happens when you lose the inside pad. but the rotors came off in 2 pieces too.


and what the hell, ill show off my sexy *** rotors too xD

Wow!!!!
I don't think I've ever seen a rotor or a caliper that looked like that.
Looks like the dust/splash shields are long gone too.
On the upside....look at the snazzy new rotors.
