![]() For the fronts, we cut a bunch of notches into the backing plates then hammered them flat, then shot them with some Rust-O primer and black paint to keep them from rusting. On the rears, we did in fact trim them off completely. I also purchased the $95 set of Z1 braided lines... And didn't use them. They sucked. No matter how we routed them and mounted the mounting tabs, they wanted to pull and bind up, and I just didn't feel comfortable running with them, so we just used the short banjo bolts on the stock "base" lines. I'll eventually swap them out for the "Premium" Z1 lines. Lastly, the bleeder system I bought on Amazon and what they sent me was totally different, a.k.a. - Wrong! So we flushed and bled the brakes the old fashion way. Once done, the brakes on my Z feel a lot better than those on my brother's Sport Z of the same year, both 2016 models. A lot firmer and better stopping power. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
