Wow, I wish my wife would let me get brakes for her vehicle for her birthday. She wants things like, dinner and clothes. Your a lucky man 
I really cant complain. The wife told me when I was just going to get a 2wd truck instread of a 4wd, that if I wasnt going to get a 4wd there wasnt any point in me getting a truck. She made me a happy man.

looks familiar
you and your wife will love them the increased stopping power is amazing especially if you are traveling at high speeds, seriously driving at speeds over 100 is alot more comfortable knowing you can stop, with the stock brakes at those speeds you get some feedback from the pedal but not with these rotors just a firm pedal
