Default how much should i pay for this accident brembo brake?

my friend bought a 03 used 350z from the autotrader. now he just crashed the car when he made a turn and hit to the fence. my question is does the brembo from his 03 350z still can be used on my 06 350z touring? what is the reasonable price i can offer to him?

650 with your breaks installed, like that the insurance company wont say anything when they take the car...

or if he sells it, it will have breaks,

also explain to him that he wont get 650+ on the salvage value of that car based on the brembos

its a win win

How old is your friend?
How long did he/she have the Z for?
How the Hell do you just crash into a fence out of nowhere?

hahahaha this thread gets my vote for "worst Z driver of the day"
congratulations. your friend is an idiot moron who was clearly driving
like a maniac in a residential neighborhood. Thankfully he did not
hurt anyone.

and what an opportunist~! how much are his brakes worth? hahahaha
this is soooo money.

tell your friend he needs to drive slower in residential areas...serves him right....

Like others have said 650 seems like a really good deal...and its not like he's going to get extra insurance for having them/not having them
usually used brembos go for 1000ish
