I'm thinking the CT503 may be larger because it's $5 more per pad.

Here's the Carbotech XP10 prices:

03-07 Accord Coupe V6 manual CT787 $172
97-99 CL V6 CT503 $177
01-03 CL V6 CT787 $177
S2000 $156

Why do they have two prices for the CT787?

^ i believe that is correct. the left is picture of the OP who said he used 03-07 Accord V6. the right is 01-03 CL. they look just about the same. brakeexpert told me that the difference is the coating, the CL has the zinc coating and cost more. but they both use the same bracket, so the offset should be the same.

I looked on Hawks's site. they have dimensions for the brake pads there.

the 787 pad is a hair wider and a hair taller

this is the smaller pad that fits

i'm using Accord calipers because they are cheaper than CL calipers and it looks like i ordered the correct year for the larger pads.

they should arrive tomorrow but i wont be home to sign for them, so i won't get them till saturday. i'll install them on saturday and take some pictures.

i stopped by auto zone and got some brake pads for comparison.
503, 98-02 Accord V6
787, 03-07 Accord V6 which i'll be using for street

i got the Duralast Gold CMax Ceramic pads that comes with hardware. they were $60 and i'll be using them for street. that's a pretty good price considering they are Lifetime Warranty and i love getting Lifetime Warranty pads i wish they make Lifetime Warranty rotors
