On eurocar parts it's was 20 each rear disc, 35 each front. Then the pads. I got everything for 189. Seemed like a fair deal

Ah thought you had only bought the fronts!! Not the full set.....as you stated it was the fronts that needed replacing

My mate just went to stick on the discs and said that I need vented on the rear and the solid brembos I've got won't fit. Does that mean the rear brakes have been modded? On the eurocarparts website it says solids on the rear and these were definitely advertised for my model.

Thanks

If yours is an AUQ (which I'm guessing from your sig) then you'll have 256mm vented rears as standard.

Dammit. Both eurocarparts and the place I bought them from both lied. Bloody irritating. Try and do the research but still get the wrong bloody bit. Well now I know. Cheers mate

If you bought them from ECP then take them back. AUQ has 312mm front and 256mm vented rear as standard  :wink:
