Wow, city driving ruins pads or what? I warped my rotors at 48 000 kms, but the pads were still next to mint! And the rotor warping saved my *******, so i'm not going to complain.

They are all over the place. Your dealer should be able to search his dealership database with the options you want, and can then do a dealer transfer. If he is making you search for them because he is too lazy to use his own computer system, you need another salesman. The last 2 new cars I bought were dealer trades like this. It is common.
I went the ebay route so as to get rid of the rotors too. They have both lasted over a year with no issues. http://shop.ebay.ca/i.html?_nkw=coba...dmd=1&_ipg=200
If you are insisting on keeping the horrible stock rotors and getting brand name pads, I'd go for EBC, or any of those offered by vendors on here.
PS: I think these are the exact ones I have. The coating is nic e, keeps the non-rubbed parts of the rotors looking really nice http://cgi.ebay.ca/04-05-CHEVROLET-C...item3c99cb346f

Yeah, hes not being lazy lol. I just have to wait till friday (my day off) to get him looking. My '09 G5 got hit when it was parked, and SGI is bending me over (10k worth of damage and no total), but the dealership is taking advantage of me not wanting the 5 anymore and wanting a new car, so theyre being real good about everything lol. I want a TC sedan, in white, silver or blue with LSD. Id take a coupe too.
Does having a dealer trade cut back on how much you can dicker?

looks cool
yeah a dealer trade is one way for them to fool you out of a deal. if you want higher value for trade, less discount, if you want more discount, you get less value in the trade.
btw try to get a 2010 as lsd is standard apparently

Ok fella's, is it just Sharp Auto that does 3M in Stoon? Cuz Ziebart does do 24" and smaller, but they can't cut anything wider/bigger. And Sharp's job last time was fair, but not spectacular...
Ya according to their adds they are the only certified 3m place in town.
I found a vid of Me vs WS6. I'm about in the middle of the vid. Little late on the gas but catch him quite easily. I'm prettty sure you can hear bouvier say **** after I pass him LOL.Mike was running a regular gas tune, I don't think Mike will forget to reflash on his premium tune after this day.

Well i finally got m stock components back. I can't remember who wanted my Eibach's but the same deal applies. If you swap my stock springs back in, you can have the Eibach's. About 1.5 inch drop all around. Ride feels good. I really have no time or the place to do it myself, that's why i'm offering this deal.

Hey DJ It was me and I will still swap them out for you, just give me a call on my cell 292-8425 and we will set it up.
Yes it was crazy in the mall, but not as bad as I have seen it in there. Most of the crowd seemed to be there for the 'Twilight' actors autograph session.

Haha yeah, maybe I should high-temp paint it first?
Yeah it's been a loooong time comin, that's for sure! I still remember back when I was a vanguard, a crazy guy jumping on the TVS bandwagon. Now, having waited forever, I'm the last guy in the world to install one haha. Let me know if you like beer, pizza or cash. Cause I will be hiring you one way or another lol.

No problemo. After the Riders win the Grey cup I will have all the time in the world. I've got a pretty fun winter ahead of me with all my suspension mods and installing a clutch in my tiny cold garage.
