found a cheap replacement for rear brembo pads
hi all
after going to the dealers to change my rear brembo pads they asked for 220 pounds without vat and without fitting them
! i simply laughed and told them i will fit them somewhere else...
my only other option is to search for other pads. took the pads out and went to the local car parts. found out they look exactly the same as a BMW 316 front pads so i took a pair (4 pads) for about 10 pounds all i had to do was to sand them down a bit as they were too thick and they work perfectly fine
so there u have it 22 times cheaper than the dealer!! DAMMNNNNN
