I did not resurface my rotors, I properly bedded in my hawk pads, and they dont squeak.

lol yeah yeah I'm glad that they are finally working fine. My only other mistake was not upgrading to steel braded brake line.....oh well maybe next time lol.
on a side note I woke up pretty early this morning and headed out to the local canyon roads(I'm in southern california) to test the brakes out. They were flawless through the canyon roads so all is well with the new pads. All in all I'm pretty happy with the pads and it's performance.

My hawk hp's dont squeak bad at all just make sure to use a lot of break caliper grease on the shims and any place that has metal to metal contact and youll be good
