Default Brembo "Coated" Rotors

I searched on these key words and wasn't able to find anything specific to my question which is this...are
these rotors these rotors
direct OEM replacements or are they some sort of knock-off that are using the right key-words? Same rotors found http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/2008/lexus/is_f/brake/brake_rotor.html and I'm just curious what is meant by "Brembo Brake Disc Coated" since there seems to be emphasis on it? Sorry if this has already been covered and I couldn't find it but I assure you I did search. Thanks in advance.

I searched around and there are other vendors sell the same Name & part #. On Brembo's site there is no such number. In fact, it's a completely different type of number.Non alpha-numeric, etc.

I previously bought cheaper aftermarket rotors, just installed figs/rb rotors yesterday with stoptech pads that we're already installed with stoptech lines and fluid. What a tremendous difference!

I'm not sure of that p/n on Parts Geek but I believe the "Coated" term is referring to UV coated rotors. The description can be found on Brembo's website here: http://www.bremboparts.com/us/produc...v-coated-discs

Click on "Catalogue" to find the Brembo p/n.

I know this because I recently purchased a set for the rear and found the p/n on Brembo's site

I'd like to see the same rotors after a weekend on the F at Carolina Motorsports Park.

So I'm guessing based on the responses so far this is a case of "too good to be true" and these are NOT direct OEM replacements???

I am sure they are mechanically sound and a perfect fit, but they are not finished the same as the OEM rotors.
