I got mine from them. I think it took about 4 or 5 days to get to Cali.

Got mine from them (back when it was $400 shipped) and it took 2 days to get to Jersey. I'd imagine it should take 2-3 for MD. However, a thing you may want to watch out for is the lines they give you not fitting but I hear they fixed that problem (lines would go on but the flares wouldn't seal). Other than that, install was quick and easy and they pay for themselves every time I'm in rush hour traffic.

They look fantastic and the stopping power is a massive improvement. Well worth it and one of the most overlooked Mods out there.

Some other user here got the kit from them recently and said the lines fit perfectly and since the problem w/ mine was the flare not sealing, I'm assuming that was the problem they fixed. As for customer service, they know their stuff but I never tried returns so I don't know for that...

coulda been just a random bad flare coupling. wouldn't be the first time.

Congrats on the kit. One of the best mods I've ever done. First thing I'd do to a stock stang.

Just checked out there site for ther brakes, it says they have a front kit for 96-99 Mustangs same as 96-98 Cobras Black caliper for $399?

But it also advertises another 96-04 Black Cobra brake kit for $419?
so whats the difference (besides that it does say brembo rotors)

Also they are advertising 10th anniv., Bullit and Cobra in Red but they all seem to have the same thing different price??
!3in rotors
2 Red or Black calipers
2 braided hoses
