You have one of the most beautiful F80's I've ever seen! If I ever see it im sticking my pepe in all 4 of the exhaust tips LOL

[@F80Ho]

🤣🤣🤣 no comment, just laughter bro 😂😂😂😂

[@F80Ho]

But thanks 🙌🏽😆

[@portugal5698]

Ik right!! When I was client advisor/salesman at a BMW dealership, that was a tell-tale customer sign of a definite sale or deal!!

[@doda74]

These are the same pads I changed to last week. The difference in brake dust is night and day. With the OEM pads, my gloss black wheels looked brown after just a short drive. With the Akibonos, there is almost no dust

[@F80Ho]

Hell yeah man, I washed on Saturday and went cruising yesterday…it is 100% night n day difference. So happy I finally made the switch. I know that life, had satin black wheels on my f30 and had the same problem lol

[@ayyyman_]

I just did all four pads and rotors on my 330i F30, next is my 435i.... I didn't bother filming it honestly, it really does take 10x longer when you do lol

[@M3_Foss]

Thanks for the details in this DIY. I’m all about the details! I was planning to do this myself just wasn’t sure what brand to go with. Thanks for the content as always!

[@F80Ho]

Anytime man! And thanks for the support as always 😂🙌🏽

[@M3_Foss]

@@F80Ho yes sir!!!!

[@TheDailyDriven]

Yeah totally agree the stock brake pads suck. The amount of Break dust that comes off those pads are just insane. Within a 10 minute drive it's already coated with a heavy thick layer of brake dust. I definitely think ceramic pads are the way to go without going full ceramic

[@F80Ho]

Exactly bro! Nothings worse than cleaning our nice wheels, then going to the store and coming back and they’re dusty 😩😂. So far so good on these 🙌🏽

[@evanrdz963]

i need some pads soon, this video helped me figure out which ones i need!

[@F80Ho]

Hell yeah brooo 💪🏽 Ceramic pads ftw 😂🔥🔥

[@jmccarsnmore1025]

Not taking anything away from your choice. I switched to Red Stuff to avoid dust, and they work very amazing. But of course, lifetime warranty is a must. I use FCP for almost everything!! Thanks for the video, it took me almost all day replacing mine, including the rotors. The rear were worst than the front!!

[@F80Ho]

I actually haven’t heard of Red Stuff until you and another person commented about it. I’ll have to look it up! Sounds good, no worries, if I woulda known about it, I def woulda done my research on it 💯. Thanks for the watch & comment man! Anytime 👊🏽 and really?????? Oh boy lol

[@jessekeese723]

Nice video! I'm with you Brotha. FED UP with the brake dust. Appreciate the info on the pads.

[@F80Ho]

Oem pads are so bad man! It’s been a night and day difference from when I switched to these pads 🙌🏽

[@skrrtproductions]

Makin it look easy!! 🔥🔥 Idk what pads I have but they don’t dust much at all

[@F80Ho]

Damn you lucky son of a gun lol. My fronts were brrrrutallllll

[@EuroAutoEnthusiast]

Immediate hallelujah Bro 😁👊🏽 I love Akebono pads and use them on all of BMWs. Changing to these allows ceramic coating on your wheels to last so much longer. Btw, love your camera setup; which Sony is it? Hit me up if you need some help setting up focus lock and manual focus. Also, salute to you and your Fiancé’s engagement 👏🏽💯

[@F80Ho]

Hallelujah for real bro! The difference has been amazing so far, so glad I made the switch over 🙌🏽. Filming on the Sony A7iii but not using a vlog specific lens or a lens that has auto focus built in lol. I’m okay with it for now, I got my Canon G7X to hold it down when needed 😂. Subscribed back brother!

[@EuroAutoEnthusiast]

@@F80Ho That’s great to hear and thanks so much for the support 👊🏽💯 I use my a7iii for static shots on DIYs and with my stabilizer for car events. Otherwise, iPhone 12 Pro all day 👍🏽😃

[@cristianseminario6250]

Hey bro just saw this video.. I been looking to do my brakes too on the f80 .. just got one question if u dnt mind.. my car is like at 80000 miles nd on the service says to do rotors nd brakes .. but since is the first brakes service.. do u think I would need to change the rotors too or just pads..?

[@F80Ho]

Hey bro, you can definitely start with pads then check the outer lip of the rotors and see if they’re that bad to be replaced. Also ask your local shop/techs for some advice - hard to tell you without seeing it

[@CarsWithKeav]

Agreed, filming anything takes 5 times longer. LOL

[@FuriousM4]

Nice diy video, i should probably change mine too! Let me know how they feel and the difference you noticed! 🙌🏽

[@F80Ho]

Thanks bro bro! They feel and bite like oem, but brake dust so far has been so much less. Worth the $100 haha

[@FuriousM4]

@@F80Ho might be doing it soon then 😅

[@mthusiastmedia9782]

I was just looking at the Akebono Ceramic pads vs Red Stuff pads. Really want a stronger bite but anything less than M compound dust which is pretty much any other pad lol.

[@jmccarsnmore1025]

I switched to Red Stuff. I recommend them 💯%

[@F80Ho]

I actually didn’t know about Red Stuff until you and another guy mentioned them. I’ll def look into them next time around 💯💯💯 but after a few days driving on these, they are 10x better than oem lol

[@michaelpolissky]

Great, on my list for the next brake job!

[@F80Ho]

Thanks Michael! Can’t go wrong with most ceramic brake pad brands out there, so far I’m loving these after driving for a few days 👍

[@AbletonLiveTechs]

Yo i literally just got the same exhaust and downpipe setup as yours lol what you thinking about injen intakes? or would intakes be an overkill at this point?

[@F80Ho]

Aye brotha! I don’t think it’s overkill at all, I’ve been pushing intakes off cuz I want other stuff beforehand and I personally love hearing the exhaust more 🤣🙌🏽

[@AbletonLiveTechs]

@@F80Ho Yessiir i just ordered injen intakes! turbo spool will be louder :)

[@F80Ho]

@@AbletonLiveTechs hellll yeah! Can’t go wrong with Injen, you gonna be hearing swoooooooshhhhhh all day now 🔥

[@S55josiah]

When ordering the set from fcp it comes with 4 for the front and back correct? It’s just confusing me why it says front on the description thing

[@F80Ho]

Hey man! When ordering pads, it’s usually separate, so in this vid I only ordered front which consist of 4 total pads. Rears would be the same amount - separate

[@S55josiah]

@@F80Ho oh ok that makes sense so it comes with 2 extra ? For the next change

[@F80Ho]

@@S55josiah no each pad consist of two pieces that squeeze together, so in this vid it was for the fronts only, 4 total pieces

[@S55josiah]

@@F80Ho ohhhh yesss I just realized that thank you😭😭😭

[@Subzero2281]

Great DIY video!

[@F80Ho]

Thanks brother!

[@s87-d7d]

how are them in terms of braking power and modularity?

[@F80Ho]

I didn’t feel any difference from oem!

[@_f30_b58]

Great tutorial bro.

[@F80Ho]

Thanks bro! I always wonder how much shops charge for jobs like these LOL

[@mikefletcher536]

You should of given your caliper’s a quick dusting buddy

[@F80Ho]

I wash my car weekly so I wasn’t too worried while filming this haha

[@matsudakodo]

Hey man how have these pads been for brake dust?

[@F80Ho]

They’ve been good! Not perfect but definitely better than OEM

[@pedromiguelF82]

Do they made those for the bbk? What about the performance vs oem pads?

[@F80Ho]

Performance is the same as oem from my experience - couldn’t tell the difference. And I’m not sure on the BBK tbh

[@luiscardozo0000]

dont use a rubber mallet use a normal hammer

[@NicholasMSmiff]

What are thoseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@F80Ho]

Hahaha. My man with the recommendation 🔥🔥🔥💪🏽
