Default brembo blanks

Do brembo blanks have any kind of markings on them. I just ordered some and want to make sure that they are the brembo's since there was not a packing slip in the box and the didn't come in there own boxes.

Thanks Tim

I also bought the brembos from wholesale direct and i had them drill,slot and powdercoat the hubs black.

The rotors have these "cut" marks all over like the rotor is swirled up. I wonder if thats from crossdrilling and slotting and thats something they do to the rotor afterwards.

You can see what im talking about in the picture of the rotor on the bottom left.

http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...addb7d5e775334

I wonder if theyre really brembo or did we get screwed.

Any way to find out.

Mine did not come in brembo boxes either, just one big box and packing material.

It says they are made from "Dora" blanks (whatever the hell they are?), NOT Brembo blanks.

No I purchased the brembo blanks and then they called me saying they accidentally sent them to get crossdrilled. I said whatever send those because I can't wait for others to get here.

I called them yesterday and Jen said Brian would call. Guess what never called and mine are swirled as well. They also said that they would ship them on friday but didn't go out until the following Wednesday. I called on Wednesday the week before. I would not recommend buying from them again.

Brian.....I did ask for cross-slotted and drilled also, but I can live with the slotted only; however, when you receive the fronts back can you please send me a BOL or paid invoice for my records with the replacement front pair of rotors?

Thanks
Mark Stevens

BTW I will be sending them back out to you on Monday, 3/6/06 and I am intending on installing these by the end of March, so turnaround time isn't critical yet, BUT important so I can schedule the date w/my mechanic.

I will send this message to you in email form also.
