New Disks and Pads for my Vantage

I got a set of new disks for my car and new pads.
so far the are doing great. The dust is mild not that I care. A dirty car is always our drawback after a nice ride.

I installed JBS Pads.
I had the disks made as I could not find reasonably priced disks.
I got a drawing from original Brembo disks. and send it to the company to make.
If i remember correctly they were about 1.8 kg lighter than the originals.

You had them custom made?

How much did that run you if you don't mind sharing.
