390mm brackets

So as many of you know, all it requires to upgrade to the 390 mm brakes is the rotors and brackets ...the calipers are identical
So incorrect me if I'm wrong, but I believe the only aftermarket option is solo motor Sports.. I think they gave you the rotors brackets and pads for like 1,500 bucks?

Anyway, the rotors can be had on eBay brand new for around $900, I was thinking about getting some brackets made, is any anyone have interest in that here? What would be a good price point?

i have upgrade more then 5 cars to 390mm from 360mm without need any brackets, just add 15mm spacers/nuts and longer bolts to the calipers and that's it, the difference is 390-360=30mm/2 (half diameter) = 15mm.

Doesn't this create a leverage on the bolts effectively multiplying force?

Not sure I'm comfortable with spacers.
I have four brackets right now, I want to use them to make copies.

To clarify, since no one has provided a complete mod list:
- 390mm rotors: 09.9313.3, 2304211212, or 2314211812
- 15mm spacer: Either with washers, nuts, or steel tubing
- 12x85 Porsche Caliper Bolts: 9A700758500

I'm guessing the 390mm rotors fit under the OEM wheels?

Those spacers are solid af and precise, Thanks for making them! I doubt the calipers are going anywhere with the 12.9 bolts. Way better than the overpriced aluminum brackets. Also credit to Kenny.

All 4 spacers measured within 15.010mm to 15.025mm

Scouring a youtube video for a parts list isn't really that helpful, even if it's dumped in the comment section. Can't really search a youtube comment section for a comprehensive list of parts.

Epytec ships to USA via Ebay

Let's beat a dead horse. Since this is my family hauler I didn't really want to do spacers nor an aluminum bracket. Lo and behold Epytec out of Germany now ships to the states via their Ebay store! Just giving this information for you to do what you will with. I needed new brakes and the 390s were cheaper so here's the new setup.

This link is for W211's, it doesnt list as being compatible with W212 as @san40 pointed out.
