If its any use, I last ordered a pair of discs from Germany on ebay using this seller; they are basically the OEM disc without the Audi stamping on it, I've had my pair on since August 2015 and they are still spot on. Good to keep the cost down on sacrificial parts :-)

AH - thanks. I had seen this but just thought it was one disc. After seeing your post I realise I was being a tit and it's both discs, which will work nicely. Just need something like this for the rears now ;)

Edit - had a bit of a search and they offer the rear discs as well. Will settle for that + Ferodo DS2500 pads all around. Thanks for the help everyone :beerchug:

Chaps, has anyone used BR Motorsport (http://br-motorsport.com) before as they're pricing the bells around £70 cheaper than Demon Tweaks etc

Guys, I've been quoted £950 delivered for the AP discs and bells by the guys at BR and I'll probably end up going for them tbh.
Before I do though, I thought I'd see if anyone else wanted to get involved and see if I could get a deal for multiple purchases.

So, anyone interested?

I would be interested to see if there is a chance of a mini group buy

Sorry - one more question!

The DS2500 pads have no wear sensors - what have you guys done who've fitted them?

Thanks.

Chopped off the plug from the old OEM pads, shorted the two wires together, covered it in insulation tape and plugged in back into the loom near the top of the hub.

Anyone known if the fixing bolts on AP 390mm discs go rusty? Just built mine up and considering lacquering them.

The majority of guys recommend using Ferodo's, as mentioned above mate

Mine had a tiny amount of surface rust after a year but a wipe with a wd40 covered cloth got rid of it.

Graham - As you're looking at Rear Pads in the pic above then OEM/Pagid are fine and a little cheaper than the Textar ones. For front pads mine had Textar fitted by the previous owner and they were awful at high speed braking but adequate for A6 style driving as well as being dust/squeal free but personally I would't use them.
