    Very similar to mine... I've still got the rears to fit, just need the motivation and copper washers for the brake line and it'll get it done.

    Yep, they're the Black Edition from MTEC. I'm upgrading to 292mm so got the new calipers to fit as well, that's why I'm removing them.

    The Mintex pads they supply mate? I've had my fronts on for a good while now and covered quite a few miles and not heard a peep out of them.
