Best BBK for Aesthetics

I am planning to put a BBK on my G. I honestly don't care about performance and more about the aesthetics of the kit. What are my options? What is the general consensus about which brand is good or bad? I've done a little bit of research and so far I have found the following.

1. PB Brakes (https://pbbrakes.com)

2. R1 Concept (https://www.r1concepts.com/)

3. KSport (https://ksportusa.com)

4. Rotora (http://www.rotora.com/)

I think Rotora is my favourite size wise it covers a lot more of the front rotor. My only issue with Rotora is that they don't sell their products directly. I drive my vehicle a lot and I don't want any issues when I'm looking for pad and rotor replacements. Does anybody have any experience with R1 or PB Brakes? How are they reliability wise? This car will only be street driven. I plan on going 15"/380mm in both front and rear. If anybody has photos of their cars of any of these kits please share.

Can't speak for the BBKs, but the OE replacement rotor quality from R1 was terrible (variable cheek thicknesses, sloppy coating), though they were good enough for the street, and I didn't have any issues after a couple autox days. If you aren't tracking the car, all of these should work fine.

Why not go with the standard Brembo/StopTech/AP BBKs?
