a quick question before i kill myself!!!




hello list:

i recently attempted to replace my worn brake pads.........quite successfully 
i will add.
i used semi-metallic pads instead of the "factory suggested" organic 
pads......to make a long story short the car stops a shitload better but 
squeaks.....anyway tonight i decided caliper paint would be a good 
idea....after disassembling the various parts of the caliper on the front 
left side i realized that i am missing a piece......the little circular cap 
thingy that fits over the end of the "barrel" 	part of the caliper.  The car 
seems to have been driving without this piece for a little while now without 
any noticeable difference.......please tell me if this piece is a "life and 
death item" before i end my life driving my shoebox into something a lot 
larger.

                                                    much appreciated,
