Need to see pic's of drilled & slotted rotors and painted calipers. I need to make up my mind soon. Before I spend the money on something else.
Thanks

Powdercoated Mag Red including the caliper bracket, which helps add some size to the look of the brakes. Baer Eradispeed rotors, hawk pads, stainless braided lines, and chrome pad covers.

My Z06 I recently sold, slotted and drilled two piece aluminum hat Baer Eradispeed II I believe, a little pricey to some for just rotors, but they look great I think, and are lighter as well I believe. Plus I got the larger rear rotors with offset bracket, they really look better then the smaller stock C5 rotors...
