OE ATE front disc brakes

[mattCSLnut]

After a bit of online digging around I'm struggling to find a supplier of the original equipment "ATE" CSL stock ( 345 X 28 ) front discs.
Sure, the main stealers will supply these but even after quite a generous discount ( THANX Nick :smt023 ) they are still in excess of £400 for the pair.
IIRC 18 months ago I paid under £300 for the pair of the "ATE" OE fronts @ EuroCarPart however they (ECP) can no longer supply these :banghead: as they are mainly pushing "PAGID" brake stuff these days. Same problem with GSF who can only offer an alternative "Zimmerman" CSL size front discs for around £280 all in after some creative discount. While reasonably priced, they are not OEM, I've never used any of their products and in all honesty I'd like to stick with OE "ATE" for originality.
Can someone point me in the right direction for competatively priced "ATE" OE front discs/rotors please :thumbs:

Try Mike at awesome GTI, iirc they are £305 inc vat.

They are near impossible to find on the awesome website, but if you search over on cutters, there should be a link.

Matt the euro Pagid stuff is mint, I use them on all our cars, they don't rust and are really good discs :thumbs:

I wouldn't hesitate to put them on the csl if they do them :thumbs:

I heard a while back that if you order CSL Pagid discs from ECP, what arrives is ATE OEM discs.

Not sure if that's still the case, but possibly worth looking into.

I've had the ATEs and the finish is different to pagid discs I've used, but not having seen the csl pagid disc I wouldn't know if that's right :smt017

And there was me thinking Awesome GTI only dealt with VAG stuff ;)
THANX for the link :thumbs: £305 inc. Vat for the pair seems good value, so long as the Delivery costs aren't OTT.
I'll speak to Mike and see what he says.
THANX again.

THANX Steve... I too have bought many ECP PAGID disc & pads for my daily donkeys and all has been well so far.
ECP do specify a PAGID CSL 345 X 28 discs and I can get them for just a shade under £160 inc.VAT per side but... I'm a bit of a OEM fun-boy sometimes ;) and the thing with the CSL OE discs is, they are a bit specialist being not only vented but drilled and semi floating as well so it would be good to see the PAGID equivalent in metal for comparison to ATE that I know & trust, having gone through 2 pairs of fronts in the past 5 years.
I'll speak to my contact @ Cambridge ECP to see if he can get them into stock for a nosey without me committing to buy ;)

That would be nice Marv but quite unlikely these days as ECP are Full On PAGID only.
I might just order a pair of these PAGID CSL discs (without committing to buy) and see what turns up ;) as few years ago I bought a pair of rear OE (ATE) discs from ECP only to receive OE BMW boxed (ATE) discs at a fraction of what the main stealer would have charged me :smokin:

I remember that great deal well Bret :beer: but that was over 2 years ago now, few months after I bought my last set of ATE fronts from ECP :banghead: otherwise I would have stocked up.
BTW I've just checked their website and they have none available :smt009 at any price.

Matt think still available from Germany:

Aprox £118 each disc = £236 a set and take PayPal.

Thanks mate :thumbs: that's more like it ;) so long as their delivery charges are reasonable.
BTW, have you used them yourself ?

Not quite ;) but @ £255 all in for the pair, including DHL delivery from Berlin it's a cracking deal so I've pulled the trigger.
THANX for a great find mate :beer:

Thanks also for the link

Just ordered CSL discs & some pad & ABS sensors - cheaper than anywhere else I could find online in UK
