Just wanted to let everyone know I went to Dave tonight and it was a great experience. Dave was able to get me the Brembo pads and his tech was able to put them on. The dealership is very nice, probably nicer than any Infiniti dealership I've ever been to before. Thanks Dave for a job well done!

Need some help too...
I upgraded to the StopTech AeroRotors and Axxis Ultimate pads two weeks ago. My brother-in-law helped me out (I'd never done a brake job before). Long story short, looks like he ended up putting the pads on backwards. StopTech said the brake wear indicator tabs should have been on the inboard side of the rotors. We neglected to put anti-brake squeal on the pads and of course I'm getting excessive LOUD squealing constantly now. Not sure if it's due to the indicator tab issue or no anti-squeal.
Anyway, I'd be thrilled if I could hook up with the local Infiniti brake tech to help me right this wrong. Basically I need all the pads on all four wheels flipped so that the wear indicators are facing inward on all rotors. While they're being flipped, I'd like to get some anti-brake squeal applied too. Oh, I should mention - my brother-in-law said there weren't any shims on the front OEM Brembo pads, so we didn't have any to install with the Axxis front Brembo pads. Not sure if that's an issue but I figured it's worth a mention.
Last, depending on the cost, I want to get my Goodridge SS brake lines installed and replace my current brake fluid with the Super Blue ATE I bought last week. Can you guys put me in touch with the tech so I can get some pricing?
Thanks all,
B
