:bs: So today my brakes started making some really crappy sounds. Every time i hit the brakes i hear grinding and when im not on the brakes i hear squeling. :sad2: So now comes the big decesion. Do stick with the Comp G brakes or do i upgrade? If i upgrade what do i go with? I was thinking GXP's all around? Whats everyones opinions on this? Where is a good place to pick up a setup for a decent price? What kinda prices would i be looking at?

^^^ They will work. I've done the swap on my 04. You just have to change the rear hubs and E brake cables.

That's about how much I got mine for. You can get the cables from a junkyard. They come on 97-03 GP, monte carlo, regals, and impalas.
