BuyBrakes.com ???

Has anyone ever ordered from these guys? The prices seem too good to be true. I’m skeptical but if anyone has any insight or experience with them I’d like to hear it.

I haven't, but if you think you'll be buying a set and going through it in fairly short order (couple years), then it may be worth it to buy from FCP Euro for their lifetime warranty. Buy a set and be done!

They’re cast iron rotors and they’re heavier by a few pounds. I wouldn’t recommend them. What size rotors are you looking for?

FCP Euro has changed their return policy. Go read it and make sure it will work for ya. I'm on the west coast and Pelican is a hop skip and jump away so I'll be moving my purchases over there. Staying with FCP for the stuff I already have.

I have, and it still works for me at least. I actually chatted with them when I saw the change. And since OP is in MD, it may make sense.

Most brake discs are cast iron (or steel cast iron). More likely because it's solid, single-piece cast iron disc rather than having a 2-piece, lightweight aluminum hat.

I guess I should’ve specified, I was more thinking on the pad side of go fast stoppers than rotors. I use FCP for a lot of things but still haven’t decided I’m ok with sending back consumable parts (brakes, oils, other fluids) like others have. BuyBrakes.com is certainly cheaper than any other outlet, just not sure if you’re getting Chinese knock-offs or if someone could verify they were legit.

Every part on a car is consumable! Send that s*it back. My Cayenne TT eats through brakes like no tomorrow at a cost of about $1,000 in parts. I'm not into spending $1,000 every 18 months for brakes. FCP will be ok with you sending those parts back so you should too.

Also, while not as extensive as FCP's program (like fluids), ECS has started a lifetime warranty on a lot of parts, including brake pads and discs (will be marked Lifetime Warranty on the right side). Seems to function similarly to FCP.

Great News!
