i just got my package today and its all banged up. everything else came in decent shape. except my brake pads. can i still used these?

 

Shipping insurance? Any guarantee from the person/company you purchased from? I would not want to compromise any important part like my brake pads!

 

i seriously dont want to go through this guy again. shipped it out 1 week late. they promised to ship it out that day since i called at 10am (there time)

Is he on HT? Show him these pictures, and see what he'll do for you... if he doesn't do anything, then call him out.

 

Looks like UPS got Superbowl fever w/your pads..

Let us know who the vendor is, and get yourself a refund/or new pads..

 

if i put these on will it ruin my rotors? i really need to put these in. im on metal to metal with the pad and the rotor as of right now. and these pads came in a week late.

 

yeah that sucks that you didn't get what you were expecting. Sucks even more that you didn't even get them on time. i say you return it and in the mean time learn to use the hand brake as a helper haha

 

Usable, no big worry.

 

heres some more pics:

 

Like I said usable no big worry- as long as they are not cracked. Chipped whatever.

Consider you have identifiable pics posted now, so if you have to use them while you are waiting on replacements, that shouldn't be a problem to most vendors.

 

Use them.
Don't buy pads from the same person next time.

 

Ues them,

They will wear down.

What he said.

 

They will work, but I woudln't use them. They way I look at it is you paid for new ones so you should recieve new ones.

What brand pad are they? and who did you get them from?

This is the right route. If you can't get reimbursed then just use them and buy elsewhere. One of the site sponsors is a great place to get pads, like Andy at http://www.cobaltfriction.com/

 

give them to me, Ill test them for you to make sure they work correctly
