Did front and rear disc (ferrodo) and pads (Ferrodo DS), looking a lot better now.
Old ones were not completely used, but they looked horrible.

Did you use shims?

My brakes currently have them but I think they are stupid....

I've got a full set of TRW discs and pads to fit. What DS did you use? Performance or DS2500?

Also it seems like fancy wing mirror indicators have fallen in price...

Anyone tried these? Dynamic Black Pair of Wing Mirror LED Indicators for Honda Civic MK8 2005-2012 | eBay I might give them a try next payday...

I got mine from AliExpress for £12, got a set for the jazz too, they are alright.

Those ones don’t look quite as well made as the Bison Parts versions, but yes that’s a lot cheaper than they used to be. I’ve got a clear set of the Bison Parts ones and I’m well happy with them.

Got a set on mine bison though, they ok. One can be temperamental on opening though goes crazy, but that’s only due to some women not having spacial awareness.

The cheap ones might let in water etc due to poorer design tolerances maybe?

As the mirrors are pretty exposed and basically take the brunt of everything the road throws at your car....

 

[dazzler22]

They seem pretty well sealed, they have been on both mine for about 3 months, I think it was about £23 for both sets for me civic and jazz from AliExpress

They should be a sponge type seal running around the indicators when you get them. When you remove the old ones you will see how that has deteriorated.

2 New tyres fitted, 2 more in a couple of weeks so I don’t get a mass lump sum payment straight away.

What tyres did you go for, I have Dunlop sport Max's on the rear, it came with those and I fitted Michelin ps4s to the front. Not sure when I replaced my rears to go with Michelin's to try something else.

Goodyear AS5 for fronts, don’t know what to put on rears, was going to put uniroyal rain sports for price, then when they worn move fronts to rear and more AS5 on front.
