I would have done exactly what he did. No need to make them stand out. Looks nice & clean now.

I was trying to stall and wait for the 2-piece rotors or even the rear Stoptech... but they've been delayed with no ETA... and I needed brakes bad!!! Next round of rotors for sure!

thanks bro. it took a little while after i did em but now hes done a few more sets and everyone loves them. he even did a set of gt-r brakes in red. i know he appreciates you posting about his work.

ya project mu ns. he also helped me swap my fluid to motul rbf 600. only thing i didnt do was ss lines, maybe next time. they got pretty smelly at the tail of the dragon during zdayz but held up to my abuse awesome.
