I could take off the honda badges and replace them with Subaru or Mitsubishi, or even Peugeot! They all have Brembo brakes! I honestly think Honda should have put Brembo or the likes on the S.
Even my Dad's old Civic VTI had Brembos on it. I was slightly surprised the S had Handa brakes. But it doesn't really matter, they work!

The exhaust and back boxes look ...

... but the brakes are OTT. By all means paint the calipers black, but do away with the Brembo decals.

Itchy, since you ran the GB, I guess you are Nick right?.

I love the way the car looks after being treated. About the brakes, red calipers are not my cup of tea but since you like them, for the car and the brakes.

Err it's easier when your car is a week old one over 3 years old would probably take a few days.
