These were special-order with silver paint. If someone wants them, but would rather have slotted rotors, instead of cross-drilled, that can be arranged right up until next Friday when they are shipped to NY.

Also, if Young finds a buyer in time, the brakes can be drop shipped directly to that buyer anywere in the USA (except California), rather than having him get them on the 12th and then turn around and send them to you. That saves money and time!

thank you Dave for the endorsement

Dave, Young... I'd be interested. And I'd want the slotted rotors rather than the drilled.

Dave, any problems sending them to Canada? Will they fit my stock wheels?

What you could do is ship them to me and I'd be happy to bring them up to you the next time I head up to Canada which will probably be soon. That's only if there's a "problem" with shipping directly to Canada. Send me an email if you want to do that.

Now you're gonna be like me, Lupo!

You should also look into getting a set of rear stainless steel lines too.

He had some silver Brembos fall into his lap. It was one of those things where you are in the right place at the right time. (Car returned at lease end instead of purchased, new Brembos never installed, sell them at a loss to a friend ..)

Except he was in the right place at the right time, but three weeks too late!

Lupo, Atomic80, Young,

If you can work out the deal amongst yourselves, I can arrange to have the brakes changed to slotted and sent to Jason (Atomic80). StopTech doesn't drop-ship to Canada.

I'll let you guys sort it all out. I'll wait to hear from Young where he wants the kit sent.

I used to think StopTech was being a pain when it comes to overseas shipments until I tried to fill out the UPS paperwork to ship some stuff to Canada. Now I understand. Only the USPS has reasonable documentation requirements, but then they don't have tracking worth beans. Recall that we thought MIB's brakes were lost for a few days in Australia!

Lupo, trust me do it this way. I paid $62 in brokerage and taxes from a shipment coming from the states by UPS, and the declared value was only $100. Atomic's gesture is too kind, and well worth it. Take it.
