I guess I haven't been paying attention. I ordered geniune volvo pads from FCP Groton and got pads from India and Brembo from China. Has anyone actually used this stuff. I am tempted to send it back and get zimmerman and pagid or texstar.

    I've had OEM parts from all over the globe lately. Gotta figure that Volvo and Brembo wouldn't put their name on 'em if they weren't up to snuff. Too much at stake. Get used to it, the earth is flat, and it is cheaper to make things where there aren't many enviro regs., and the workers make $1/hr.
