Default Brakes

Its about time I get brakes, the car has over 130,000 miles and has only had the front pads changed once. Im planning on doing a full change. I had a little kid run out in front of me the other day and I jacked on the brakes( I didn't hit him). Since then I've had a grinding sound, thats on and off. Now, my ebrake comes on and beeps. I have no ebrake what so ever. Im probably doing the work myself. Anyone know of a good site that carries OEM replacements, with a good a shipping deal?

I got rotors off of ebay. Cross drilled and slotted type. I would reccomend them and it might not be too much more expensive than picking up the OEM's at Autozone. I think they're only about $30.99 at Autozone.

DEFFINETELY get ceramic pads. A lot less squealing and hopefully less brake dust. You might have to make some adjustments on the rears for your E-Brake...

I did a COMPLETE overhaul on my brakes including the rear disc swap and it cost me around $400 bucks

I got the light to go out, that was simple, just needed fluid. I still have no ebrake, I should be ordering everything this weekend. I plan on doing brand new rotors, drums and pads.
