Default Brakes squeaking :(

So I have just over 6k miles on my 05. I have never tracked it, and rarely drive it hard. All the mods are listed in my sig. It is basically squeaking all the time now... every stop no matter the speed. Any ideas??

It's possible that you don't have an adequate amount of anti-squeal compound between the back of your pads and the shims. This will cause them to squeal. Sil-Glyde works pretty well for this application.

It's also possible that your brake pads are glazed over. You might want to try to evenly rough up the surface of your front rotors with emery cloth, steel wool or a wire brush. This will remove the bedded coating, allowing the pads to rebed.

Stoptech's website has some pretty good info on brake pads. You might want to check out their blogs.

as far as brakes go they usually do atleast a 12,000 mile warranty on them call the dealership and see what they say you might get a free set or rotors and pads out of it
