Yet Another EMPI Brake Mod

I painted the rear calipers and rotors.  Not necessarily because I wanted them to match the car but I remember reading on one person's post how the first time these EMPI calipers got wet - they immediately rusted.  I used Duplicolor and did several light coats per instructions.  Be ready to wait several days for the paint to cure, otherwise it will chip off.

So, as I was putting it all together, the brake pads were giving me some problems.  Come to find out there's this little dimple on the metal side that needed to be grinded off because it hits the master cylinder.  Needless to say, this only needs to be done on the inner pad.
