BS.....

Hawk & EBS both make pad sets ---F&R combined are more in the range of $200.00 plus about 2-3 hours labor.

For $1750 you can hire me to fly to your Lamborghini, do the job and have me autograph each caliper!!!

Where is your car?

Either I or one of our friends (members) from Europe can get you the pads.

Here is a link to most of the suppliers (options) for Diablo pads (Do a Search for each Supplier on the left after entering Lamborghini in the Search Function).

http://www.buybrakes.com/

plus TireRack sells a few options in there brake section

and John Monahan has this list on his site :

http://www.lamboweb.com/Car%20Parts.htm


but it mainly outlines the Hawk line.

I like Porterfield pads. They never squeek, don't dust and have good bite.
Look at porterfieldbrakes.com (I think that's it)
They have Kevlar and C/F but I use their RS5 for about $120 a set.
They are located in California.
