yes plenty of aftermarket pad options now. I use porterfield racing pads. the front calipers and rotors are honestly fine for 100% of daily driving and short track/autox days. high speed tracks they start to show fade when 120mph + kicks in. the rears are aesthetically unpleasing. a rear upgrde to cla45/slc43 rear calipers/ rotors would be ideal from cost, function, and looks. but offset is different so we need a special rotor hat made.

Is there a 2-piece set for the rear as well?
