These "NEW" stainless steel screws, only offered exclusively through ECS will make your future brake jobs a cinch. Rotor screws can easily be damaged during the removal or from the heat the brakes make. So when you need to replace your rotors, do it right, and always use ECS Stainless Steel Rotor Set Screws.

This is awesome! I know mine are not in the best shape and would love to replace them with SS hardware. Kudos to ECS for coming up with this.
HOWEVER, can someone from ECS help me understand why shipping 4 screws to to FL costs over $11? I get there is a cost to shipping things, but $11 does not sound reasonable (at least not to me). I mean,... for the 4 screws - they weigh next to nothing. It must be a mistake, right?
Anyone else getting $11 for shipping to lower 48 states?
BTW, I'm not trying to bash a 6spdonline sponsor... I appreciate, support and patron board sponsors. So, please don't take this the wrong way... just trying to see if this is a mistake or something else.

I agree it seems like it's a bit much but think about this. As a business, they're not raping anyone on the price of the screws... it's not like they're making us pay Porsche tax.
Someone has to pack them up, do the invoices and take the time to ship them. Figure 4-5 dollars to ship, that leaves 6-7 dollars to cover time and labor. If it takes someone 20 minutes to pack them and ship them and they make 20 bucks per hour, that's your 7 dollars in labor.
I dunno, that'll probably be the cheapest thing I ever buy for the Porsche...lol.

If you feel our site or shipping has an error please feel free to contact me or email us. I am always happy to receive feedback from customers.
We try to be competitive with our shipping rate - Most of our ECS brand products will have free shipping along with other parts/kits on the site. Please add to the order what you will know you will need later on to save on shipping (Service kits, oil, ect) - Pricing on fuel is what is hurting everyone not just us, UPS included.
This rotor screw was not intended to be a project in itself. I do not expect you to take your wheels off just to replace this screw, that would not make any sense. This is an additional step that you can take when you need new rotors, to avoid the problem in the future. The more you need, the less impact shipping will be on an individual item. I don't know the exact amount, but UPS charges a flat rate per box, just to pick it up. Delivery is above and beyond even that.
Regardless, this is a brand new product that we have developed to make your life easier, and I am excited to bring it to you.
