here's another picture of a set from the last batch. I think these were sent out to Brendan. New batch will be ready this week and shipped out to everyone else that ordered.

nope; just use the same 3 bolts from your dust shield. As for the tubing; I would load the suspension a bit to figure out the right length. you want it short enough to not pop off when you have the car jacked up but not too long either.

Just thought I'd post, I installed these on saturday with no problem. I was planning on attaching them on Sunday at the track but I didn't really have a way to secure my brake duct hoses from hitting my tires. I'll be working on that this week. Installation was just the same as the kit from bimmerworld. Very easy. Just remove calipers and rotors and attach with the three nuts. Couldn't be simpler and the fitment was perfect. Cool little upgrade!

So far mine seem to be holding up. They are on my track car with two full days on them and are still attached. I did scratch them up a bit by tightening a hose clamp wrong but no big deal, they seem to be doing well although I haven't taken the hoses off to see if there are any cracks... I suspect no issues.

We can have another set ready for you in about 1-2 wks.

I've checked mine after 2 track days and about 3k miles on the street w/o any issues. I'll take some pics for you the next time I'm pulling those apart if you want.

Do these brake backing plates play well with non factory brakes?

They mount to the 3 stock dust shield mounting points on the spindle. I can't imagine them not fitting. what setup were you pondering using with this one?

Porsche 993 N/A calipers and Performance Friction rotors. I imagine they wont fit the inside of the brake disc like the ducts do with stock rotors.
