Where to get new brakes?

Lifer

Need to replace the front floating discs and pads on the breadvan soon-ish. Options I've looked at so far are:

Sopers Lincoln BMW
OEM discs x 2 £297
OEM pads £94.92
Total: £391.92 incl vat and delivered

ECP with HOT30 discount code (30%)
PAGID Hi-Carbon Discs x 2 £230
Total price with PAGID pads £273.43

eBay
OMP 971C Racing Carbon Pads £88.04

What do we think of the PAGID discs? Anywhere else I should be looking? I guess with OEM I have a guarantee against potential warping but I doubt I'll be tracking the car.
 
From my previous post, done this week :thumbsup:

Light came on so new pads all round, two front discs and the spring clips. Two warning wires all replaced, £137.24 for the parts (Eurocarparts) labour free............. my time and satisfaction of doing the job.
Back on the road again
 
Thanks gents. I'm leaning towards ECP simply because the Pagid/ATE's seem like a good spec for the MC for over £100 less than OEM.
 
Pads wise I go, EBC yellowstuff, £60-70 an axel and brembo sport discs used to be about £80 an axel, all from eBay, very good set up for fast road to racing that won't Brake the bank ;-)

Cheers Tommo. Do you have a preferred eBay retailer on the discs as I'm worried there are a few fakers out there!
 
I don't off the top of my head, I had a quick look and the did seem pretty cheap. Compared to what I remember, I'll have a look back through my abay tonight.

CarParts4Less are the same company as Euro Car Parts, just cheaper (even cheaper than with the ECP discount codes) - Just sayin :)

That's what I found out and they're pretty quick with delivery as well. :thumbsup:
 
Had a look back through my eBay, Because I buy so much crap, and I bought the discs in late 2013 I think, I couldn't find any detail on the specific seller.
