RE: UFO Brakes



I would go to the dealer and trade in your rotors....that'll save you some 
$....I've never had any luck finding anything but stock parts (90's had brakes 
by girling and ATE...mine are ATE's).  As an aside, they are the easiest 
brakes in the world to replace.

It is time to replace my UFO brakes.  I know there has been several
discussions regarding the merits of keeping the UFOs vs upgrading to a
regular configuration.  I have elected to retain the UFOs.  I would
appreciate any advice and recommendations for replacing the rotors and pads.

Which sources have you used?  What brands have you used?  How much did the
parts cost?  I have heard of refurbished kits;  has anyone used them?  Any
feedback will be appreciated.  Thanks!!!
