So I added slotted and drilled rotors from the guys at rotor pros, but I DO NOT recommend them. They added an outer glossy coat of paint to the painted black part that attaches to the hub, but it started to peel after the first day..... ... in any case, the slotted and drilled rotors themselves look and feel good... but I think much of that is due to the HAWK brakepads and stainless steel brakelines (courtesy of STillen using their 25 bucks off deal )

yeah I know, this thread needs pics... well I'm goin to a morning car meet on Sunday, and I'll take pics after the whip is all cleaned up...

anyway, just wanted to say, if you get slotted and drilled rotors, don't get em from the place I got mine, or if you do, don't get the painted ones... just stick to STillen all the way around!!!

For those who are also in the market for brake upgrades. I recommend Rotora.

Unfortunately you would need to call for the part # or find their catalog. Yes, they are meant for stock setups and they also have BBK's if anyone is interested. How do I know? Well I did the prototype for them for the BBK setup, which means they have done R&D and as well I have talk to the owner about it.
