Default Brakes

Hey guys I have not posted here in a really long time but I have a question. I know this has been asked plenty of times and I have read through the other brake threads but have not found the answer I was looking for. I have about $2000 to spend on brakes. I have looked at the baer and brembo but am not sure which kit to get. I want to replace both the fronts and the rears. This is more for looks than performace, but for two grand im sure i can get both. I am having the most problem finding kits that come with the rears. Anyone have any ideas?

If its for looks just get the cobra front and rear setup and save about $1,200.

I would go with AP's 13" kit with 4 piston calipers for $1830, and then just find some mach 1/bullitt rear brackets and rotors, the rear calipers are the same. I wouldn't spend huge money on rear brakes, just upgrade to the Cobra setup with some nice rotors, personally. The fronts do 80% of the work.

But if it's for looks, just go with the Cobra/Bullitt/Mach 1 setup all the way around, and some nice looking rotors, and call it done.

Damn, $2,000 for brakes and you just want them for looks. I don't know of anything in that price range so I can't help you on specifics. I would just look for something that fit inside the rims and looks pretty.
