Default Brake advice

Hi,

Decided to check over the breaks on my car and the rear pads need replacing, not bad as never changed them, am I right in thinking the general concensus for pads is EBC, the reds and yellows tend to be popular?

The rears tend to bind slightly on mine when left standing (Handbrake is left off) I know it's a common problem on these, but always worked fine, I may be on the look for some recon calipers due to the condition of them, also someone has painted them blue and they need repainting really, I see there about £190 on the bay, sounds expensive to me, does anyone know of anywhere cheaper?

Also the offside one has the silver clip in the top of the caliper missing.

Thanks,

Martin
