What kind of price are you looking at paying? I am thinking of parting my 2001 4.4i out and It has the upgraded 4.6i/4.8i brakes on it. I might taking stuff off early if the price is right. thanks

I purchased them for $75 each on eBay from the Carid store. No core charge. I think the listing was a goof. They canceled the transaction on me twice, but when I called and dealt with them directly they said the parts were waiting to be assembled. I told them don't cancel my transaction this time even though the parts are not available yet just ship them when they're ready.
The only thing that stinks is I didn't realize they were not clear coated. They look like rusty titanic hell. If I had it to do over again I would have powder coated them red first.

I also had to grind just a little off the edge so my stock 18" would fit.

I'll probably put my old ones on My46fanatics.com

Nice mod!

So you have the 4.6/4.8 front rotors and caliper carriers too?

I'd love to do this too as my rotors will need to be replaced next pad change.

I have 19" sport wheels but my spare is a 17" though.

If you had to grind to fit 18's than I guess 17's are totally out of the question for the fronts even for spare use?

Correct. Some 18" require no grinding, but 17" will never work.

My spare is 18". I would get a 18" or 19" spare from the junk yard it will fit in the same spot.
