I feel sorry for anyone who has paid Ford's price for Brembo parts/service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at around $800 for fronts anywhere else.They also sell rotors, callipers etc. Edited 15/04/07 01:42 AM by Dagabond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostn Donating Members 116 Member For: 20y 4m 1d Gender: Male Posted 15/04/07 01:31 AM Author Share Posted 15/04/07 01:31 AM (edited) Guys I ended up purchasing from Cebco. My oldman was in melb so he could just pick the stuff. Cebco was cheapest for me for orginal brembo gear. AND I rang bloody every where.Guys just to add to this topic,When getting your brakes changed make sure you get the thickness of ya rotors checked independently and not from ford.I got appointment with a very reputable mechanic in my area to change the Pads and Discs. He thought he'd check thickness of the rotors and said they still have a waaay to go on the them. So all did was change the pads. Well at least I got the rotors in ma garage now to change wheneva I need tooo.Paulie.. Edited 15/04/07 01:32 AM by Boostn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
