Default My Rotors Have Arrived.

So after about 3 weeks of waiting my rotors have arrived. I was gonna go with double slotted and double drilled, but I got to scared and went with the normal slotted and drilled that most get. They were custom drilled which is why it took a while, but I can finally say I'm happy they arrived.I purchased the rotors from Adam's rotors. I plan to get the calipers painted black with the Lexus logo cant wait, will post the pics of the caliper painted and will post when the rotors are installed here are the pics of the rotors.I

If u use the g2 paint, instructions are 15 minutes after the first coat and 2 hours after the second coat before putting back your wheels on. It says not to drive for 24 hours to let the paint heal. I'm painting my calipers soon as well. Post pictures when you're done! It's going to look sick with the rotors

Ok, plan to drop the car off tomorrow and leave it there in the morning I'll drive it and park it for the night when they finish. They are spray painting it.

Congrats, I just purchased from Adams Rotors as well. Unfortunately it was a terrible experience and took 2 months to get two little rotors.
