using TireRack as a reference, the Brembo blanks themselves cost about $50, so $100 for both fronts

since Dave at EBT said he could only use the stocks for the rears, the rears were around $100 each, so figure another $200

the bottom line costs were $190 for fronts and $240 for rears...shipping was included in the cost

Dave also cut me a break and threw in a set of the rear Rofren brake pads for free since they r not available in fronts (no mold available), so i paid another $94 for front Hawk pads from TireRack shipped

total for rotors and pads comes to $529 shipped...this does not include installation costs

the look sweet ...but is there any chance of compromise in the rotors' structure when you x-drill or slot blanks?

if u do it right, aka follow the web design of the rotor, then no, there is no compromise

i actually managed to get a kickass pic of a new STOCK rotor about 5K miles ago in the light, and u can see the webbing very clearly

Scooter, just curious but how much is PAA charging you for the installation? I had called my dealer and they want like $150-$200 to install new rotors, pads, and brake lines. That amount being just labor of course, I'd be bringing in my own parts.
