I buy from FCP Euro so rotors cost me the price of shipping. Also, wanted to try the brakes on track with OEM rotors for comparison before upgrading rotors.

Gotcha. Thanks for the response. I plan on going the 380mm when/if I get mine. Look forward to seeing them installed on yours and your thoughts.

Color matching, and it was actually slightly cheaper than the local/US places I was initially looking at.

Just FYI,

I ordered a G2 paint kit for my rears in Porsche Speed Yellow and requested the same color with code from Slonik for the fronts. The color matches perfectly.

Is brake kits the only thing that is outstanding? Are people missing DCT oil pans or side covers?

Trying to get a DCT side cover for my DCT service (already got Slon's pan). I'm trying to gauge if I should wait or just replace with OEM side cover. If I'm dropping the DCT, I'd rather put in Slon's side cover too.

I’m still waiting on my bottom pan, on the upside it looks like brake kits have started to ship so hopefully once those all go out pans will start to ship too.

Still waiting on my rear calipers

Like many of you I received the fronts that were part of the latest group buy. They look awesome!

Still waiting on the rears to ship or show up. Been over a month since the fronts shipped and haven’t heard anything from Slonik since 9/24.

I downloaded the whatsapp app messaged Mikhail and he responded ASAP saying he'll check the status of my order on Monday.

So guys I reccomend contacting him via whatsapp? (google slon workshop then at bottom of the page has contact details click on whatsapp link and it opens up so you can message him via the app when you have it installed)

It's been 4 months so yeah hopefully its started at least

Let us know if he responds to you. I did the same... and he told me the same thing... that was over a month ago. I am trying to be patient. But with $4k into this, it makes it a bit challenging...

Sure will do!

Frustrating thing is you can't just demand a refund as theres no one else out there doing this unless you want to go for uber exxy brembo gt kit

He won't respond. Although I hope I am wrong. And now that I think about it, he seems to only respond to "NEW" numbers/contacts from WhatsApp. I've messaged him about once a week since I last heard from him. No response...

Ahh OK I guess he's sick of the constant nagging from everyone (not that's any excuse!)

I know when I'm extremely overloaded at work and you have 20 different ppl wanting everything at once it gets stressful and overbearing, but I dont just put my head in the sand and ignore them all
