Don't think I have ever seen an evo VIII without faded Brembos. I've been always meaning to paint mine just haven't got the ambition to do so yet.

Mine are an absolute horror story

not all dealers warranty them, trust me. they will try to get out of it by making up things like you had to of bled your brakes and got fluid on them or something stupid to that effect. If anyone knows whats dealers are warranting them please post the name and locations of them. POCCARRO MITSUBISHI, RACINE, WISCONSIN will not!!!!!!!!!!!
