Shipping to Aust for Rotors
I was thinking about getting some BMW Performance Rotors for the rears to match the fronts that I got with the brakes kit from Germany.
Messaged United BMW and got quoted $200 for shipping for the pair of rotors I'm pretty sure I paid only $200 for shipping for the entire brakes kit (front and rear calipers, pads, rotors, dust shields, sensors, screws) from Germany that was sent over in 4 large boxes... Anyone know a good place for drilled/slotted rears to match my fronts that doesn't charge more than the item itself for shipping? I'd rather genuine BMW Performance Rotors if possible.

Do you by any chance know how the rear ECS drilled/slotted rotors compare to the BMW Performance ones? Weight, colour etc. They look a little different in colour when compared to the BMW ones and I guess I'd prefer the front and rear to look the same if possible. I would get the 2 piece ECS ones but they don't make rear ones

The ECS 2 piece rotors (for the front) are really good, they are indeed a little lighter than the BMW Perf one (ECS claims 20% lighter).. Unfortunately out of stock for another 4 weeks or so.
For the rears, they are all 1 piece, but you can get at least a semi-matching look if you go for drilled & slotted. I still pay pretty hefty air freight prices on the rotors to get them here... when I eventually sea freight a whole heap of rotors over I'd be more than happy to pass on the savings |

Have you been able to see if you can get the stud kits yet?
