    I just picked them up lastweek but didn't open it yet. I'll be bringing them to Jimmy in a few weeks to have them installed. If anything, Nextmod says I can bring them back for a refund but they sounded promising that its oem.

    Yeah you're probably right. I just checked and I got the Vortex High performance brake pads (the same process that OEM manufacturers use. Made with Higher Quality Graphite-Metallic Carbon Fibre Compound.) Well...hopefully these are good enough.

    Hey Guys,
    just wondering if prices went really up.
    just called nextmod yesterday and they were quoting me $500 cash for OEM.
    I asked for front and rear pads and rotors.
    is this reasonable. reading the thread some people paid under $400

    You've never heard of them? someone comments on them in literally every new thread that comes up about needing new brakes.

    regarding Nextmod, i didn't say they were OEM. if he really wants OEM, he should go to a sponsored dealer, but if he was considering OE replacement from NextMod, i was saying go Max brakes

    but if

    OP, if you are buying OEM parts from dealership.
    Go to MOT or Dixie 401 Mazda, they offer discount to TM3 members.
    I always get 15-20% off when mentioning TM3 discount.

    +1. The parts department at MOT applied the discount to my OEM rotors when buying from them last fall. Always very helpful there and they always apply the TM3 discount

    Nope I haven't...are you that someone?

    I know, that second line was in response to something above but I lazily didn't quote it.

    I have had consistent problems with MoT applying proper discounting. I ended up going to 401 Dixie - zero issues getting the 20% discount and the rotors were priced less before discount than MoT. MoT said it was only 15% discount when I had called them.
