New brakes for my 958.

With custom made 405mm/380mm high carbon rotors, aluminum hubs. No need to replace the standard calipers. (will repaint in red later). Looks great with large wheel (22") with better stopping power. Just finished this evening. Total cost is $1,600 installed. Same as the cost of replacing with standard set at dealer here. Don't know how much will be over there.
The alternative for anyone who looking to improve yours.

Only $1600 for brakes but guess how much it costs to own the car in Asia.

Anyways, looks great!

Sorry for late reply, did not check back. Here's the contact if anyone interest, http://www.runstopbj.com/main.php They are an OEM brake rotor factory. They maybe able to ship for you. I been using their custom rotors for 1,000km with no noise or vibration. Anyway,I also dont feel any improvement in braking power. That's not a problem, since I upgraded them just for the look. And it's same cost as replace with OEM set. It looks really better when see through those 22"
Info
Front from 350x33mm->405x33 rear 330x28mm ->380x28
Material - high carbon steel, aluminum floating rotor hub

Did you have brackets or spacers made to move the calipers out further in order to fit the larger discs?
