Updated the R1 Rotors after first order was incorrect. Got front & rears Cross Drilled Black Zink coated Premium Rotors. Also they threw in Ceramic pads. Took about 3 hours total for me to install...Old rotors were kinda a pain to get off, but I got it done. I like the way the car stops after the initial break in period.

where r they made?
update in a few months to see if they rust or not?
link to where u bought them...thanks.
ive had my cross drilled rotors on my car for almost 10 years..they are not grooved/scored or cracked. but that being said i leave myself plenty of room between me and the next car and i know how to brake..meaning i dont ride the brakes for a long period of time then rest the car at a stop and let pad material transfer happen. i bought mine from i rotors but they are no longer on ebay.

Nice looking rotors, should have painted the calipers while you were at it and had everything apart. definitely awaiting the link and any updates...

looking really nice, and I agree with ultim8mind with painting the calipers. I painted mine with the color "aluminium" and they look really nice. not too flashy (like if you painted it a specific color) but has a pop to it.

I love everything about this build up until the stereo install. I'm more of a hidden stereo guy and was hoping you were putting those cross overs inside those panels and thought that would have been genius! I assume they probably wouldn't fit underneath though huh? Either way, killer setup so far and you used quality products so, props, by all means man!

Hey how you liking the sound system? How does it sound? How's the distortion? How equal is the sound? I am thinking of pulling the trigger on something like that myself...lemme know brother.
