So for some reason they didnt tell me they didnt put the dba's on. They are apparently going to be there on monday, and of course im away for 2 days, so they going to be fitted on wednesday. So hopefully numbnuts oredered the right rotors this time. Wont be handing any cash over second time round that's for sure...

Let me get this right.They fitted them hoping that you wouldnt notice - but you have.They now plan to take them off and re-fit some real DBA's next week.They now have some used (although minimal) RDA slotted rotors that they are going to sell to the next poor bugger that comes in looking for rotors...POOR FORM!And mechanics wonder why they have a bad name and why most people think they are often getting ripped off by mechanics.

Member 227 Member For: 16y 6m 28d Posted 23/10/10 04:31 AM Author Posted 23/10/10 04:31 AM just says rotors on the invoice, but that is beside the point, he was told to put on dba rotors and he didnt.Im a sparky and if someone asks for down lights to be put in and I put in fluros cause I didnt have downlights is that acceptable?Was not from a mechanic was from a certain francise muffler store. If I knew that I couldnt machine the rotors I woulda replaced the rotors myself

Kingers. Member 227 Member For: 16y 6m 28d Posted 28/10/10 06:29 AM Author Posted 28/10/10 06:29 AM ok was told the rotors were in the shop today so I go in to get them fitted up and of course they were the wrong ones... Smaller in diameter so for a ba Part number was Dba 504sl im pretty sure these wernt the rotors I wanted to begin with? they say street series on them but no 4000? Gave them the part number dba42107sl and sr to oreder in. They are the 4000's? Supposedly they'll be in in the morning so hopefully I can finally get them fitted 2moro night and have it all over and done with

Any feedback would be appreciated.
