Default Any interest in new Alloy brake bells?

I'm sure I can offer very good price's on these for a group buy , will change the look of your car and we can anodize any of the following colours,... black / blue / red / gold / sliver /purple / green

Ford ones but will look pretty much the same






If we get any interest , I will need to know some size's

Thing is, by the sounds of it, none of the brake retailers sell the discs without them. So you have to buy the bells anyway.

Once you have a set of bells you can buy any rotors you like to fit them AP Performance friction etc.


295mm rotors for subaru 4 pot

325mm rotors for brembo's

As above, and performance fricton supply just the replacement rotors for around £100 less than a full kit .

Our bells can be anodised any colour rather than standard colours you will normally get , and would have a better finish than most

If we can get a few interest they would be around £35+vat ea

CrazyGTiR - these don't fit any at the moment, need to gather sizes then make them


Stalked! - Ksports wouldnt be a problem, as you know I have them here and can easy get the size's, not sure if you have noticed but the bells on the ksports are a bit grainy and don't have a very good finish.

chrisdicko - will see what I can find, I can confirm I can get ksport and performance friction size's easy enough

Yeah spotted that, the finish is fairly poor, maybe a fancier one would be better lol

What you need to do is find a source of discs then start knocking out a 2 piece kit for the gold Brembo's, Just selling bells is a bit pointless IMHO.

Can you do them for a Stoptech 328x28 set??
Measurements are not a big problem, car is in a state of repair anyway.

Yes, as long as you can supply a sample.

I would consider stocking all the major brands

Can you link to some rotors which once we had the bells, we could then order the rotors please? Or will only performance friction fit, not any rotor?

Thumbs up

As long as the bolt holes PCDs are right ( plus the offset etc) then any rotor can be fitted to a bell.

See my new set up for the P1 alcon brakes - I've had PF put on (by Zen) but AP were also available - they were just more expensive. So far very pleased with the PF



£35 + VAT is incredibly cheap for a bell
