Also being honest everthing hasnt been plain sailing with the brakes.
When they first arrived a few months ago Movit sent the wrong discs they were meant for a customer in russia for his Merc. They then sent me out new discs which were for a TME and they didnt fit. So finally they sent out new the discs I got them fitted the other day and on full lock the discs were rubbing on the lower arm. So we sanded down the edge of the lower arm slightly and the rubbing stopped but if i am going up a slant and turning at the same time they are still rubbing.
I mailed movit about this and they said someties you need to modifiy the lower arm how ever my friend with the same kit on his VII had no problem so we are going to compare discs and see did they send the right ones or are there measurements off.
I am very pissed of with them at the moment.

I know mate its a joke. I am pissed off big time I have asked for them to send the measurements out for the discs and if the ones they have sent me are different they will be sending me out another set of discs. I taught being a German company I wouldnt have any issues they are normally so spot on with everything.
Sorry, but why did you go MOVIT instead of Brembo or AP? Also, did you need new calipers? Are the Movits calipers better than stock?
Off topic question -- Do the mud flaps help save the paint at all? I somehow threw a rock into my rear (drivers side) door panel and had to use touch up
. I was wondering if folks put the flaps on to prevent similar damage or if it is just for looks. Thanks
