    I would upgrade both the front and the rear, in fact, I did.

    What to get, depends on how much you are willing to spend and whether or not you feel like upgrading to 17" rims or bigger. You can simply get some cross drilled and/or slotted rotors and some performance pads, like I did, or you can get a big brake kit. A big brake kit would consist of bigger rotors, better calipers, and steel braided brake fluid lines. With most big brake kits, you need 17" rims or bigger. And most big brake kits are $1,000 and higher. If you have the money and are going for looks, I say get some 18" rims and a sweet big brake kit.

    The green pads you are talking about are the EBC Green Stuff pads.
