Default Brake pads

Hey everyone, I'm looking to get some new brakes soon, if I end up keeping my S. that being said, I checked my passenger side front pads today and I have about 1-2mm left of pad, so I was wondering does anyone from upstate SC have any extra used pads that they wouldn't mind donating to me? I need something that'll last atleast a couple weeks if not several months but I don't need anything that'll last a long time. If you have anything please let me know thanks!

Thanks man!!! They are a world of difference, inside one on passenger side ended up being down to the metal:/ took maybe an hour after I figured out how to get the pistons back in lol. Oh and i've decided I'm probably going to keep my car and put some stuff on it and respray it then sell it.
Parts list
Arp Extended studs for the rear
10mm spacers for the rear-Already have just need studs
Some kind of single, invidia/j's racing/greddy-still need to find
INGs+1 Carbon replica bumper, already have lined up just waiting on money
Some kind of side strakes
NRG quick release hub
Personal/Recaro steering wheel
New tires - Michelin Pilot Super sports non staggered, Discount for me and I can do it myself
Alignment - Going to talk to adam about that
Fender work in the front & Re roll in the rear
Full Car respray - Monte Carlo Blue, JDM NSX 02+ Lime green
BYS Replica rear spoiler
some sort of diffuser
That's the list for now, I'm sure it'll grow though

if you do green i will key your car
look into GP Fabrication or Alloy Craft for a diffuser
invidia is loud as balls, you will cry like a baby after 20 minutes of that sound
vent your stock rear bumper and use a diffuser, looks cool and cost tons less
Get a tune!

lol. otherwise i am glad you kept it!

Cam, you're one to talk about loud exhaust . The new Invidia's (Q300) sound great and are nowhere near the deafening sound of a Skunk2 dual exhaust.

I'm glad you decided to keep your car, but I don't understand why you would dump more money into it, just to sell it. Why not just save the money you're planning on spending for parts, and put it (and whatever you sell your S for) towards a down payment on your next car?

More than likely gonna keep the S until I graduate college, Great Djing platform with lights and sound to go out of it. Plus a M3 is a little out of my price range right now, Plus I'm trying to get a bike sometime around august as well. So we'll see how this goes, if I start modding the bike, I'll just spray the S, do minor fix up things and sell it and get a good daily, then use the bike as my main form of transportation and use the car when it gets cold or rains. And I agree toyo about the exhaust skunk 2 is loud as crappp
