The tweeters look spectacular ,just wondering what the brand on the speakers is.. bc I have heared that B&O uses the high-end Philips components.(wether true or not).
Great build !!

looks really nice. Is it me or rotors are same size just more drilled?
What model is that rear brake caliper from? S600 euro?
I believe you used SL55 setup upfront?

Also will B&O speakers work w/o B&O amp?
Thanks

that's crazy just for the tweeters! The price you said for the whole system for $1200, is that something that we can get too?

Thanks

Thanks chris. One more question.

So you use e55 front and s600 rear caliper. Are these plug and play. Any special mods? Thanks

Let me express my admiration to your work first.

I'm amazed for the amount of time you have given to this build and I love it. Thank you so much for sharing.

Yeah I love to have those, How much and can you ship them to me?

I ordered the sills at the dealer but I'll cancel, is it a big deal installing the lighted ones?
