Default Brembo Blanks...help please.

I bought two front BREMBO BLANKS from a random dud ( I could still find him easily though)..brand new out of the box..

And looking at them, they don’t say Brembo anywhere on them..

All they say is BPC 6641 D2660030P that is on the front of the rotor…

On the back it reads 210761-C..

Did I get jipped?…and also are akebono pads good pads? cuz I got a set of those aswell…

Please throw me your input. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I bought some blanks from a retailer and they didn't say brembo anywhere on them. Just the box said Brembo.

Rear Brembo OEM blanks are $68 each from Strano Parts.

BTW, I've never heard of akebono pads.

Sorry for bringing this back from the dead but this is all the info I could find on my problem. I bought 4 Brembo blank, HPS pads and SS brake lines from Strano a little over a week ago. He said I got the last set of Brembos he had. Well I was about to install them today and was looking at the fronts. One of my fronts is one of the 210761-C and looks like a different cast from the rest. The other doesn't have a part number cast on the inside and looks like a rough casting that has been machined on the pad and wheel surfaces just like the rears. The one in question is completely smooth. It came in an older looking box with 2 labels, 1 label was scratched out and 1 was the correct part number for the front (27249). Also the rotor itself didn't come in a bag inside the box like the rest. They look to be the same dimensions. I just wanted to know if this is the same rotor (just older) or is it a different brand. I don't want to wait till Strano opens back up monday to install my new brakes. Thanks in advance.

Brembo does not make their own blanks that are sold for the North American aftermarket (that I am aware of). The BPC on the casting stands for Brake Parts Company which is Raybestos now owned by Affinia Group. The 210761-C is the casting number.

Look on the outside diameter of the rotor that does not have a casting # and see if there are any numbers on it. I am guessing it came from a different source other than Raybestos or is just a "newer" rotor from Raybestos that came from China. The rotors with the 210761-C were cast in either the US or Canada.
