My car: 2000 Acura 3.2 TL, V6, 105,000 Miles on it.

Question: Shall I put Acura Brakes on them ( cost $1200 including labor at Acura dealership ) OR Shall I put after market brakes ( Cost $ 800 including labor at some body shop ).

- Is these a big difference in performance ?
- Will they last the same ?
- Any Noise difference ?

Please help ?

I have an 02' Type S TL: did the upgrade to Brembo Ceramics - best move I ever made. No Dust like the standard - and Excellent Braking - I also upgraded the Rotors from Vented to Slotted & Vented - the extra air is key. Good Luck.
