Or are you speaking on behalf of aesthetic issues?

But if all fails, you can always try eBay.
they dont have catastrophic issues but if they were the same as the "unmarked" ones i had the pads fade at high heat. if your going fast and/or carrying a lot of momentum it may be worth upgrading the pads. my front nearly gave out on me one day and the pads turned to gum.

like i said, they may not have been the same ones.
