Sounds like a reasonable price to me.

Re: Pics of mine - aka the blank canvas!
Lol, yes Bam they are indeed. Bespoke design built from the ground up with the specialist brake engineering company given a C5 front suspension arm/hub, brand new C6 caliper/pads/mounting bolts and told to have at it.
NO SPACERS WHATSOEVER and designed to mimic the bell depth of the C5 disc as much as poss to keep C5 OE geometry as identical as possible.Kiss goodbye to front wheel spacers and potential arch scrubbing.
Once they are totally finished more info will be posted up in a dedicated thread. Hoping/expecting to have them installed and bedded in, in time for ADI.

Re: Pics of mine - aka the blank canvas!
What thickness is the disc, Footers? Can you just use a standard C6 pad?

Re: Pics of mine - aka the blank canvas!
Long week but off the top of my head so could be wrong:
390x36mm rotor
48 vane/18mm air gap
Float in bell bobbins
Disc bias springs
Looking at AROUND 10.1Kg per disc. These were designed by some guys that really know how to make bespoke racing brake solutions (thanks for the tip about them Ceveman73) and performance came before weight, although the weight is great as far as I am concerned. Maximum pad sweep was also a top priority, as this has been looked over on IMO certain other solutions that I have seen.
The setup was designed around a OE C6 Brembo pad as it this would make the discs a more versatile choice potentially for owners wanting to upgrade and it is the job of aftermarket pad makers to base their physical dimensions around the Brembo OE C6 design to ensure caliper compatibility afaic.

Also, in that 2nd photo, is that one of your tyre shredder wheel attachments I can see on the table in the background?
