    I picked up my kit yesterday. There was a problem with the wrong front pads but Rob corrected this right away and the new set are already in the mail. *thumbs-up*

    The kit itself is god-damned beautiful. I chose powdercoated red calipers. Between the fact they have this thick powder coat on them (which feels somewhat rubbery) and how very light they are, they almost seem fake, lol.

    I especially like the machine marks in the hats. *oo look, shiny things!*
    Agreed. I will have a review soon. After this weekend of fun driving...

    This is the kit I will be buying very shortly. Looks like a well manufactured product, and it's made in the USA!

    Way to stay classy Rob. I am in the automotive business as well, and this thread is one of the examples of why I try to stay away from forums sometimes.

    I won't even LOOK at the other person's kit now.

    Nice. Will mine be ready for pickup when I return from the 'other coast' on Monday?

    They are local, but it's been a question of "getting up to speed" on the new calipers as the masking is somewhat different than other calipers they do for us. Better to do it slower and correctly than fast and wrong.

    Most of the black powdercoat kits have gone out, and some reds. Powdercoater finishing up the last few and still waiting on the anodizer.

    As of Monday they were still assembling or waiting for the powdercoater. I forget. Should be able to get this next week after I return from bimmerfest.

    I think I am going with the D-Force for my track wheels. Wonder if someone local has a TR wheel. I would be happy to check fitment...

    Hoping to have my BBK today.

    I don't have one of those wheels, so I cannot say directly. However, if you do, you can use our template on the website to pre-determine fitment (or what size spacer may be needed).

    I would suggest if you're going to buy a kit, do it now. My order shipped this week (very late) so unless it was just a dupe, the price should be going up now.

    I need these! Priced really great and would do wonders over the stockers for my SCCA weekends.
