You know like if we could credit the cost of replacing the stock brake parts & labor to aftermarket equipment.

Show up at the dealer and have the parts swapped out for upgrade equipment for a minimal cost.
The dealer could charge back Acura for the stock parts and apply that cost to the upgrade.

I think PAA should take the lead on this....

I know…..I’m dreaming again.

I would be all about that, but no sense in getting our hopes up because it will never happen

Hey, guys no matter what, you will get warped rotors every 15k like mine. Most dealer won't replace the rotors. They only cut them, but after a couple of times, the rotors are shot. Just order the Brembo rotors from Tirerack and intall them, and your problems are over. They are only $50 a piece for the front.

Its worth a shot if there only 100 for the pair. Are they any bigger than stock or just an OEM version of brembo?

These are OEM size Brembos. Fitting can be a problem if you want bigger rotors. I will take the Brembos over Acura rotors any time
