Default New Brakes

Just installed the Cobra brake upgrade kit from FRPP on my 2000 GT. Got them from American Muscle. Was wondering about breaking in the new pads. Is there anything special that needs to be done? It was a true bolt-on kit and all 4 wheels was fairly simple.

I beded the pads in, but it's not really needed with the OEM pads. Just do 6-10 hard stops from 60mph let the brakes cool then do 6-10 stops from 40mph. If nothing else do it so you can experience the massive amount of braking you have now.
