Default Drilled/Slotted Rotors Installed!
It was about 70 degrees today....so I decided to roll out the Vette and install my drilled/slotted rotors that I ordered on the recent group purchase from Vettes n More. What a difference in the look of the car once installed, plus they make the polished pad covers look even better. Thanks to Mark at Vettes n More for a both of these great products.

Here are the before & after pics (since we all know pics are mandatory!!)

Looks real nice.Since there seems to be warranty issue 's with engine and exhaust mod's think it's time to look at wheels , tire's ,rotor's , calipers and such things.

They look great. When I installed my rotors, they sure made a big difference in how the car looked.

Gorgeous!!! I need to order a full set for mine, but I was going to get the dealership to do the installation.

Who's got the info for the diy guys? It seems simple enough, but do I need any special tools for the job? Any tricks I need to be aware of?

Thanks for any help, guys!
