so you have the same problems in your country as I have in my. Everything needs approval and verification and jada jada jada...

About the brakes,...why bother with approval if they can't see the difference?

paint the calipers grey and problem solved :)

Yes. But I want a matching kit all around.
And I am getting the engine swap approved.
I am putting on the performance friction kit on later this season.
Going to Nurburgring in august for the oldtimer,probably need brakes there :)
