i bought the kit from auto zone about 2 years ago and that is definately some good quality stuff. Mine have just barely faded but still look really good. I cant remember the name of the stuff but it came with all the stuff needed and i still have about 3/4 of a can left.

can you get the color in gloss black? red drum brakes dont look good, but gloss black on the front and back would be nice. its also the theme for me. is it called brake dress up kit?

Default brakes

You can get it in gloss black. I got the kit for $15. Also yellow too. I went with red and it looks good. I have calipers front and back. 2002 tahoe, 2wd 5.3. Do most the silverados come that way?
Anyone have a triple gauge pod they want to sell yet #17105 ..... "oxidizr" i know your out there!!!

whats the reasoning behind that? they should have been thinking about a factory turbo or something like that to put them ahead of the competition instead of different brakes.
