Stumbled onto these. Any info/experience from anyone. I'm sure they're Chinese knockoffs. They look purty.

Apparently they only sell rights. Lefts aren't offered in the sellers other items. Or a SET! I don't quite get it.

The left side is in a link under Related Items in the description.

Not sure about the "hard oxidation paint" coating. WTF is that?

Looks like most of the sellers other stuff is made in Taiwan. Might actually be a decent product. You can even order some 911 front a-arms at the same time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Do note the piston is mill finish. It will corrode.

If there is seriously enough demand, I will make these just as soon as I finish the master cylinders. I'm sure I could be in that ballpark in quantity. Maybe an early and late version?
