As the title suggests I'm after a set of ramics for the RS. Drop me a line if you have anything.
Thanks.

There's a set of eBay for £23k.
No but really there's also a few sets on eBay for under what seems the ~4K market value.

Sorry mate but a deal like that doesn't come around too often so was hard to ignore.

the other kits you see on ebay, fitting different audis... do they fit easy or is it a case of needing brackets made etc?
because £7200 and some of the cheaper ones are not terrible value if you can list them for sale for 2.5k and sell them in under a hour with other people queing... we all lose money on mods so its tempting

Your'e not wrong, In the first instance I'm after an original set from a B7 RS4 (easy to fit and no fabrication required). if I don't manage to find any then I'll look at the other options. I'd even be tempted to buy a car with ceramics and swap them other as maars suggested. I can only find one car with them though!

Plenty in Europe especially Germany with ceramics. Mobile.de or AutoScout24.de
And you should have that many issues selling a lhd in the U.K.

Most of the kits you see on uk eBay are from R8's so not straight swap. I was looking I'd look on eBay.de as prices tend to be cheaper

That sounds mad to me, buying a car just for the brakes.
