Hello,
I bought a pair from here earlier in the year:

I think with postage they worked out about £38ish for the pair!!! Bargain. O and don't forget to give them a lick of paint before you fit them, then they'll stay minty fresh for ages. :) http://www.a2oc.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7219 (scroll down for pictures)

Just some normal smooth Hammerite (I mixed a steel colour though, as the stock silver is a bit bright). :D

I just had the rear brakes re-built on the older of the 2 A2's I have... Cost a pretty penny I can tell you.... Ouch... FYI the drums price above is about the cost price to a 3-rd party garage!

thanks for the help guys.I'm try rubbing the rust down then paint them if not i will buy new pairs.Now my car is starting to squeak when i turn right. Is it because of the brake disk or do i need to do something else?
