Default Ran dry on brake fluid!?! HELP

i was in the process of puttin on my new rotors and pads and i had the calipers off cus iwas painting them and i forgot to put a vice grip on the two front and all the fluid ran dry?!?! i have heard its not good if u let the system run dry? it ***** with the abs or somthing? am i right.
i was gonna bleed the whole system anyways with super blue ate fluid but i didnt wanna run it dry.

Hate to tell you this but your pretty much screwed. You can try bleeding the system manually and hope the ABS module didnt run completely dry but I doubt it.If you arnt lucky and it did run completely dry get it to the dealership to have it bled. To properly bleed the abs system you must have a tech2 scanner to open and close the abs valves
