can't get rid of the logo unfortunately, it's part of the powder coat finish.....

not that fussed really, as it is all BRAND new stuff.

worth noting that prior to fitting this, I removed all stainless pad guides & filled the back cavity with silicone sealant to prevent the guides from blisering in a few years time....

oh....there will be a set of used fornt brembo's, pagid discs & NEW pagid blue pads for sale soon

Good thinking with the silicone there, might just do that when I finally get round to refurbing mine.

Because he can't be bothered to scrape it of either - kappa 20vt runs same 4 pot Brembos as Alfa 166, so when I ordered a set for the race car, I ordered Alfa 166 parts knowing the garage would find them so much quicker

Except they say "Alfa Romeo" on them and the identical Brembos on my kappa coupe say "Brembo"

Superb Taz

absolutely mint there,.. this is seriously developing into one of the most desirable (and fastest) Coupes in the UK.

The title (mini-Ferrari) has never been so apt

Don't misunderstand me - its more a case of preferring that my brakes didn't say "Alfa Romeo" on them, than that they say "Brembo" after what it cost me to run the correct Lancia cam box cover rather than one that says "Fiat"

I would feel just the same if mone had said "Ferrari" on them - still the wrong marque
