my ghetto-fab handle was coming apart and looking crappy. Had some paypal funds to have fun with so I figured I'd see if I liked it. Actually, I really like it. Looks really good in person, perfect fit, and good quality. It's a brushed finish, you'd like it

and it's Momo, not Nismo......

Those rotors look great!

(A lack of rust is always a winner)

How much do they weigh compared to stock?

Forgive my ignorance, but what calipers will you be using with those? Not stock, I suppose....

and yes, i realize they're on backwards....they have been switched to the correct direction

thanks larry.

Sciff, the lighter weight is noticeable. Quicker off the line and lighter over bumps. Worth $500? Eh...probably not just for that...but factoring in the fact that the Coleman rotors are made of much better metal quality than OEM or Brembo, and that they look so damn nice, I guess it's worth it....
