Fake Brembo rotors ???

[mengseav]

I bought a pair of these rotor discs a few days ago. Everything looks fine until I see the markings on the outer wall of the discs. Any help ?

going by the pics ekvtir-t posted yours look fake. id take a bunch of pics and email them to brembo also stating where you got them. they should be able to tell you if theyre legit or not

lettering looks very poor

[junoki]

Have you contacted the seller ?

Brembo still hasn't reply and I doubt they will. I contacted the seller and he says he can assure they're 100% genuine lol.. he even recommended that I message brembo to clarify it, probably because brembo won't reply

[bennjamin]

Just make the PayPal claim. Problem is you will have to pay for postage back ($$$)

Depends though lad, some times they don't even ask for the stuff back lol

[Baby Face]

then pay for restocking fee, and handling fee, and repackaging free (since they might need to make another fakebox too)

I have contacted the seller in the past, they make it sound so genuine. Unless we can find solid proof of it being counterfeit, otherwise I think it'll be hard for us to do anything about it...

Guess who finally replied to my emails after I sent them another one asking why they haven't replied.. lol
Yeah so BREMBO replied to me today, asking for pictures of the box and rotors. I sent them through, hopefully get a reply soon. I'll update here when they do reply.

Those entry level blank brembos all come out of a sweatshop in China anyway, hell it's probably the same joint that made RDAs.

Dont expect the letters to line up properly

That's good news! The reply does look a bit simple but I think they wouldn't have been superficial at authenticating their products.... let's hope so
