Those brake adaptors are new to me, I only saw bolts as adaptors for the Brembo 18Z calipers. I think my mechanic would prefer that kind of adaptor over the bolts that I got, although the bolts have been doing the job well so far.

The kind of bolt adaptors I got for the Brembo 18Z:


Do you have a link for the shop where you got yours? :smiley:

@ Shoduchi : On First look they are the same! :happy2:
The only thing other than the nuts is the bracket which is threadet,  so this is a bit stiffer I guess?
I orderd these brackets with the German company called Epytec. Www.epytec.de
They have many brackets for different types of brakes for different cars.
Good company & excellent service!

Thank you RBS! I'll ask my mechanic if I should replace my adaptor bolts for that kit or not. :happy2:

Waiting for pictures of the new parts. :smiley:

Great upgrades! Can you make a list of everything you'd done/bought so far? There's a few I'm sure I have no idea what they are. :laugh:

Time for an update again :wink:

Got some time last week to change the front look.
Starting by mounting the edition 30 badge on the gril.
Changed the fog lights & open grils in the bumper.
Also went to buy a new bluetooth module and in the buying frenzee bought a rear badge with cam!!
There went the budget for this Month!! :doh:
I didn't realize that this mod would be so intense!! I've got to crack open the intire side & boot of my eddy!!  :surprised: Not to forget half of the dash :doh:
But the positive side is : I can finaly use my phone in the car! :jumping:
Anyway when photobucket is back online, pic's will follow :wink:
