Epic fail is due to the amount of brake dust coming out of the stock pads. EBC yellowstuff is recommended of the sport brake pads with reduced brake dust I believe

Yes and yes. One of more affordable ways to get into HRE though.

Octavia is big enough, I'm also guessing a loaded Superb with some of those underpinnings would be a $60k-ish prospect.

Cheers, figured you'd approve.

As for the HREs, yeah thanks for that, pretty sure I've seen this somewhere before, a sweet look but the next one is staying stock.
