Two weeks ago with OZ wheels refurbished but old AP Racing brakes....
Last week with revo brakes....
Thanks for the compliment!

Car still looks amazing. Doesn't look like it's aged one bit. I love all the little touches of carbon fibre around it, the breaks and alloys are a stunning combo are they 17" or 18" alloys ?

....Some of the carbon parts are painted.
The OZ alloys are 18" Alleggerita and about two-thirds of the weight of the OEM BBS 18" - They make a big difference to feedback when driving hard.
The revo brakes feel smoother than the AP and have awesome stopping power. It's important to remember that not every car behind you can stop as quickly!

They look really good I'm on eBay liking for some as we speak

....I was expecting more than 8 years as an aftermarket component but do appreciate that VWR are more track orientated and everything gets replaced quite often.
They are the same ones as in my original post in this review thread. So rubber I guess. Are the blue ones poly?

Plural. Thread is about just the dogbone mount. So are you saying you have all 3 VWR mounts, and all 3 have failed? No mention of that in this thread, not that I could find amongst all the bickering at least.
Yep, the blue ones are poly and not made by Vibratechnics.
