Hey people...

Here's what will happen to your brake pads if you try to put a BBK caliper on your stock rotors. =)

Or, for instance, like in this case, if you put too small of a rotor on a car. This customer complained of a "brake noise"... found these.

Also... this wouldn't be cause to void someone's warranty. We just wouldn't be fixing their brakes for free this time...
