Hello.

I purched from Euro CP yesterday a full set of brake discs and pads all round.

3 out of the 4 boxes have holograms and QR codes, where the front disc box doesn't have anything on. Think these are genuine before I get fitted to the cat.

They don't have any more replacements till end of week and need doing ASAP, could exchange for Eicher what you think?

Adam, I must admit when you mentioned China I was surprised, but who can be surprised anymore with this Country and their Manufacturing. I must admit to me Brakes are one of if not the most important parts of a car “They have to stop you”.
Hope it works out for you, perhaps it’s worth asking a Dealer or Brake Specialist as a “Double Check” to clear your mind - Dave 😉

“The Brembo Group today began manufacturing aluminum brake calipers here in a production campus where it already makes brake discs. Brembo, which has been operating in China for almost two decades, has a production hub here measuring almost 40,000 square meters.3 Apr 2019.”

Adam, just found this “Brembo” Document on FAKE Brake Parts, a little late but might be worth a read - Dave 😏
