Ouch!

The bolts holding my brake caliper adapter to the wheel upright/knuckle are begining to rust to fastener heaven after only 5 months hence I recently made an enquiry with Pro-Bolt on some titanium equivalents. Below is the price quotation they sent me.

Total quotation cost after discount and including shipment came up to 128.06 GBP or MYR633 depending on the exchange for a grand total of 16 pieces of bolt, washer and nut. I don't like to whine and I know modding cars is an expensive hobby but this is still very very stupendously outrageously expensive to me! Now you know why F1 teams have an annual budget larger than the GDP of some countries...
