And these particular Brembos on low end cars are just as low end as the car itself. These may look good but that is all they do. They are nowhere near a typical aftermarket Brembo BBK. They are poseur brakes clear and simple. They are all about looks and nothing else. Take for example the 350Z - the brakes fade like crazy and don't have good stopping distance.
