[s-cars] Cracked Big Brake Brackets - ECS Stage 2

[Taka Mizutani]

I hear you, Matt, just that in an Audi application, with the custom hats,
you're definitely
reusing the hats, so OEM applications other than for an Audi are not really
relevant to the
discussion. Since most aftermarket brake upgrades also reuse the hats, I
wanted to hear
more about whether this is an issue or not, before spending the $700-800 for
a pair of rotors.
