Everything is still really good: pedal-feel is higher and firmer than the stock Advics pads (still not sure why this is the case, but I'm enjoying it).

Cold-bite continues to be the same: the friction-code 'G' has not faded or changed, and because the pedal-feel is improved I feel that brake-modulation is better (but truthfully I can't remember complaining about the stock brake-modulation).

The hardware all fit fine. I did fumble a bit during installation with one of the front-pads, and I knocked the backside shim off... but I re-positioned and lightly re-crimped the little fingers to hold it back on.

I'm getting lazy these days, and I haven't noticed any sort of dust-buildup on my wheels. I'm only washing maybe monthly these days... and I am using brake-dust-coloured aftermarket rims, which surely helps :-)

So, a few months in, and a few thousand km's on the ASP pads, I remain happy.
