I am going to be as transparent as possible with this listing. I purchased an early signature works “17z retrofit” I have both the front and back kit with 4 pot rears and 6 pot fronts. I sat on this kit for over a year and watched as things unfolded with that brand. I’ve heard people say good and bad things on the kit. Last month I decided I’d have it installed only to be told by my mechanic that they can’t do it because of the cutting and grinding required for it to fit. I then watched the install video on YouTube not less than 15 times hyping myself up to do it myself before reminding myself I do not have the skills to properly do it. That leads me to this for sale post. I’m realistic about what these are, I can’t prove they are an Alibaba.com kit but there is evidence out there. There are sellers on eBay still selling this kit including mpartsworldwide for around $3k. There are a few small chips in the paint from the attempted install but it comes with everything that was included: Brackets and bolts Rotors Calipers Brake lines They are heavy boxes so shipping will be expensive but not out of the question. I am located in Nashville, Tennessee and would be willing to meet within reason if buyer wants to avoid shipping. install video |

Are you referring to the grinding mod as of the rear brackets as shown in the pics below?
If so, a handheld grinding tool will do the job. It took two of us (me and another member from here) about 10 to 15 minutes to make it fit. Had something similar to this retro-kit for about a year, driven about 4k miles, but no issues (no noise, no rattle, etc.). I share this for the buyer in case OP doesn't decide to keep the kit. At the price OP offers, this is a pretty good deal. GLWS! |

Great write up and. transparency - and great deal on this kit. If I didn't just do the f80 swap, I'd be all over this! GLWS!
