The pads don't come with all the hardware needed. I double checked and the hardware number you provided is a good number.

Killer,
Thanks for the order!!!

You think anyone here would be interested in a group buy on this set up? If we do it in the next few days I can count yours as the first one and adjust your pricing some.

Please post any interest in a group buy, also let me know, with or without pads.

Thanks

I'd def be interested in a group buy. Maybe give the option to have the package with or without pads.

Would the group buy be with the DBA rotors or the stock ZO6 rotors?

I added a pic from tavi_ws6 to post #2. I think that's 4 people so far with them installed. IYYOB, MARINE02SS, tavi_ws6 and Wesmanw02. I still need a nice pic from Wesmanw02. I think Big_Bird_WS6 is in the process of installing his. He would make 5.

hey what is involved in getting these powdercoated? ive never powdercoated this type of caliper, do you just fully disassemle it (pistons/boots etc)? How much did you guys pay for like a red powdercoat?
