Ever wonder what SE rotors on an SLE/SSEI looks like?

I just bought an 01 SLE that needed a bunch of TLC.
I pulled off the front tire(s) and thought something was slightly off. After doing some research... some genius put 11" SE rotors on it.

Haha... it took me a few minutes. I wasn't familiar enough with the Bonneville trim levels to know that the SE had an 11" rotor and the SLE/SSEI had a 12".
Pretty funny stuff.

That's one way to keep the edges of the rotor cleaner...

That's an epic fail if I've ever seen one...

hope you did not buy it safetied with the brakes like that.... if you did i would take it to the MTO (ministry of transport) and get them to look into it.
I bet you were wondering why it braked funny.
as my ruffians would say
epic fail

To be honest, the brakes felt fine... they were a little warped, but not bad.

LOL, could you imagine the guy at a brake shop doing a check on pad wear? "What the?"

Holy *shoot*...I wonder who did the last brake job on that car...
Absolutley amazing at the sheer ignorance of some people who think they are mechanics.
