"Zimmermann rotors are similar to genuine Porsche and do have the drilled holes. They are an option for the front rotors only.

The main difference between genuine Porsche and Zimmermann is that the Porsche parts have painted hats for corrosion protection. In order to get similar protection, you will have to paint the hats on the Zimmermann rotors yourself."

From Todd's site.

Note the reference to "similar", not identical.

I see nowhere on his site that he states that these rotors come from Porsche nor are they making them FOR Porsche.

Am I missing something here?
