His image does work and I'm not putting Brembo on stock brakes.
CJOHNST3 - How much do they cost and are they available in black?

Cost I thought was pretty inexpensive - like 10-15 max shipped.

I've had conversations with 2 different guys about it, possible group buy to save us a little but again, it's only 15 max, so not sure a group buy is worth the coordination effort for a few bucks
