Front brake refurbishment done.

I picked up a set of used calipers, cleaned them, painted them. Got a piston refurb kit (basically a new dust boot). Added SS brake lines, and new front rotors. Now I've got my old calipers to clean up. Some day I'll tackle the rears.

The brakes on these cars are SO simple. It's amazing that they work so well.

944 NA brakes are very "unsexy". Yet they work very well and allow for fast pad changes.
