Overview
Not just pads and rotors, this kit adds a pair of red powder coated calipers for the Mustang front axle. The carbon-fiber ceramic pads are low dust and the drilled and slotted rotors are plated against rust.
Including calipers saves sourcing them separately and gives a visible change behind open wheels. The downside is a heavy box, and fit is limited to the front of the two model years named in the listing.
Who it's for
A do it yourself owner of the named Ford who wants a complete front corner upgrade will find all parts in one carton. Owners of later Mustangs, or a buyer wanting only pads or rotors, should look for a smaller kit.
Pros and cons
- Calipers, rotors and pads in one kit
- Drilled and slotted rotors vent heat
- Powder coat resists corrosion
- Low-dust carbon-fiber ceramic pads
- Front axle only
- Fit limited to two model years
Performance notes
The pads use reinforced carbon fiber for stopping power with low dust, while drilling and slotting the rotor vents heat, gas and debris. New calipers also restore clamping force. The listing claims shorter stopping distances than OE brakes.
