Really? Man I must be going blind in my (very) old age. I didn't see it. I'll go look again. Thanks.

Just be careful because many of the posts are for a GT4 and not a GTS. They are different front brakes, not sure about rear.

Here are the right brake pads from Carbotech for a GTS4.0 to help you cross reference. I went through one wrong set before getting it right too. Parts books are not up to date.

These pads shed a lot less dust but you give up some performance.

Just took delivery of my car yesterday and was looking at this, then I realized that the yellow triangle itself is just a sticker. No need to tape over it if you want to leave the fingerprint-resistant protective covering on... Just hold down the cover with two fingers while you peel off the yellow sticker with your fingernail. Done.

Why not just take the protector off? It should never get scratched, at least mine will not since I use a knuckle instead of a finger (and I keep my nails short and I don't have kids).

Because the protector is fingerprint-resistant. Oily, smudged fingerprints on car display screens drive me nuts. To each his own, of course. I can always peel it off later if I decide to. Cheers.

Do you think that a screen protector that has been removed carefully can be reapplied to another car?

I think that would be tough to do without getting bubbles. That said, there are lots of matte-film generic screen protectors available on Amazon that could be cut to fit, though.

Nice work! How do you like it?

Is it in the lowest possible position?

Got the matching bolster covers/protectors/belt loops for my interior courtesy of EdGuard! 100% perfect match with OEM Chalk/Speed blue (right).

Physics. And it's not going to be pretty when said limits are exceeded.
