Brake upgrade/bracket machining question

[Aaron]

Hey guys, so as some of you know, I am doing a front brake upgrade to the Porsche Boxster 4 piston Brembo calipers. Take a look below and let me know how easy the bracket would be to modify?

 

Stock S pads:

Roughly modified S pads to mirror the Standard Boxster pad:

So the obvious thing to do would be to lower the ledge that the pads sit on, however:

There is essentially no room, as I wouldn't feel comfortable with a pad that was any closer to the bracket.

 

It does look that if the pad opening on the bracket was widened, it would allow for the pad to be lowered enough to have full contact.

 

Thoughts?

I see no problems with grinding it out. Your not going to take enough materal out to cause any strength issues.

Any idea who could handle something like this? I don't have the tools for removing the material.

Anyone with a grinder.
