Don't install upgraded pads at the rear of the vehicle unless the front has the same upgrade. The Thermic Black coating, an anti - corrosion layer for long - term rust resistance, doesn't need pre - installation removal. Don't use brake cleaner or other methods to remove it; doing so isn't covered by the EBC warranty. After installation, the brake pads will remove the coating in the swept area within the first 10 to 20 stops. This kit fits 2000 - 2009 Honda S2000 Base and 2008 - 2009 Honda S2000 CR models.

How to use: Just install the brake pads and rotors on your vehicle as per the standard process. No need to remove the Thermic Black coating before installation. After installation, drive normally and the coating in the pad swept area will be removed by the brake pads within the first 10 to 20 stops. Precautions: Do not install upgraded pads at the rear of the vehicle if the front is not upgraded in the same way. Avoid using brake cleaner or any other methods to remove the Thermic Black coating, as this is not covered by the EBC warranty. Maintenance advice: Regularly check the brake pads for wear. If the pads are worn out, replace them promptly. Also, keep an eye on the rotors for any signs of damage or excessive wear.
