I bought the front upgrade kit from ford racing. Came with the calipers, pads, rotors, and steelbraded brake lines. What a difference. I spent a little more and got the red powdercoated calipers. This a great investment if you ask me.

The total from fordracing.com for me was 384 shipped, and arrived in 3 days. They are a huge improvement over stock and the price is great.

Do the full upgrade. You won't be disapointed. And for the last touch on the conversion, don't forget the Cobra/Bullitt/Mach1 17" space saver spare. The first flat you have to change (if that's your bag) you will be glad you did.

Yeah,the 17" spare is a must,the stock one won't even try to go on.The only other way around it is to swap a good tire back to front,then put your stock spare on the rear,unless you have staggered fitment then your shit outta luck.
