the sickest thing that i ever see.......

Ghunger · 03-06-2007, 07:48 PM

Is it just CF stickers over the top of standard Brembos or did they do something else to em?

actually, hm? i wonder

SV Concepts · 03-06-2007, 08:02 PM

No stickers here... it is high temp cf applied to caliper and then re layered with multi layers of high temp clear lacquer.. Very advanced stuff developed exclusively by Vorsteiner.

Ghunger · 03-06-2007, 08:10 PM

I guess the question should have been. Do the brakes function any differently than standard Brembo's? I don't doubt they actually put a ply or two of CF on the side of the calipers.

Adham · 03-06-2007, 08:11 PM

does having CF in your brakes serve any purpose besides looking really good? (entirely non-sarcastic tone here)

SV Concepts · 03-06-2007, 08:41 PM

The purpose is strictly aesthetic - Vorsteiner wanted to offer a way for their customers, most of whom enjoy having exposed carbon fiber on their cars, to match the brakes to the exterior and interior appointments.

You can order them without CF. The CF part is just an insert in that area, the rest of the caliper is Aluminum.

very cool idea

remmib · 03-07-2007, 12:03 PM

Looks awesome

SV Concepts · 03-07-2007, 12:45 PM

Vorsteiner has already sold some for the E46 M3 - who will be the first E90 to have them?

normtrum · 03-07-2007, 12:54 PM

Any slotted rotor options? the only good use for drilled rotors are for appearance. They have a tendancy to crack, and actually serve little to no purpose for heat distribution.

ScBlacksunshine · 03-07-2007, 01:21 PM

I am afraid to ask for the price..

What guarantee if any is there the CF won't go sickly yellow from the heat? I'm not worried about the lacquer, but the CF under it.

SV Concepts · 03-07-2007, 02:43 PM

To put all fears to rest:

-They come with either cross-drilled or slotted rotors
-They cost no more than a normal set of brembos, and we offer specials
-Vorsteiner guarantees all it's products.

That's great that they don't cost any more ... but how is that possible? Their profit margin must be next to nothing on these ...
