I did a search on Google...funny, looks like the same pics that was used in the 'Brembo' auction that was used in an old post by WDP, but at that time, they were sold as Bendix rotors (not Brembros)


I bought a set of rotors off ebay for about $180. I did a lot of looking first and it seems all these guys selling rotors are out of CA, so I assumed that there is a large mfgr out there that supplies all these guys.
Not for sure where WDP is, but I would take a guess they are also from CA or out arond that area.

My guess is that these are the exact same rotors that I just bought. I did not buy them as Brembo. I would think that if they were true Brembo's, there name would be on them. Not for sure though.

Good luck

Hmmmm, not for sure then.

Just wanted to point out that it appears they used the same pics for the Brembos as they did the Bendix.

You would have thought they would have posted the Brembo rotor pics on the Brembo post, and not the Bendix pics. From what I saw on that post, alot of guys thought that those were the rotors they were getting. I'm sure I would have to.

Who knows. I'm sure other guys will have some input.

Check this post out that I just made in the other thread. They aren't authentic Brembo's.

Comments pulled straight from WDP's ebay feedback and each comment is by an individual user.

Both Brembo and Bendix rotors are made by the same company in Canada.. The real true Brembo's offered through Brembo have the Brembo logo stamped on the outside diameter..The very same Canadian company makes rotors for Many companies..Raybestos, Brembo, Walker, Bendix, and they make very generic rotors for people like sportsbrakes and many others. Most of the companies have their own specs..or do the final work at their own facility. Baer's rotors are manufactured in Austrailia and finished here at the Baer Facility.
This is old news, I was on this two years ago and made issue of it here many times...

Those look exactly like the Bendix rotors I received. Don't know if they are or not, but they look just like them. They even have the same little oval thing with RF and LF.
