Looks like the pads wore to the metal. hard to say in the pic.

 

Is it just me, or does the paint tone on the front bumper not match the hood and fenders in the straight on pic? It just looks a bit off. It's really hard to tell from the pics though. I'd take a long hard look for any indication of front end damage.

 

 

Easy fix -- new pads and rotors.

 

...and you get what you pay for.

I don't like cutting rotors. You're basically making the rotors thinner and therefore easier to warp or crack under heavy use. And even that is best case scenario, assuming that the rotors' imperfections weren't too deep to begin with and/or whatever minimum wage grease monkey cutting the same rotors that your life depends on is not lathe-happy and doesn't shave off more than recommended.

Just don't cheap out. Pay the $120 or so and get new rotors with warranty and the correct thickness, eliminate human error and incompetence, and have a much safer S2K.

 

haha that looks sortof like mine, its not a problem other than squeking they will stil break but if i was you i would ask him to get them changed before i bought it cuz you dont wana have to do it

 

well i havent said that i will buy the car,just wanted to consult with you guys about this issue.plus he hasnt yet call me back with his final lowest price so we'll see...

 

fix the brakes and it seems this will be in 100% condition

 

Have you asked him if the car has been damaged? Carfax may show if it has. He may have had the front bumper painted for stone chips. No big deal. The rotors look similar to mine and my car only has 6K on the clock. How long do S2K rotors/pads usually last?

 

it looks like whoever drives that car, cant drive and is constantly braking
