Any updates from you guys with the Brake-Performance disks on the fit and finish of the dimpled & slot rotors? I was set on Powerslotts but I think I will get these in black for the cool dimpled look to compliment my XDs. As long as the black wears off from the pad. I do not want all black rotors..

Bummer on no responses for the Brake Performance disks, but I just bought a front set to hold me over until my bigger paycheck next week when ill get the rears, semi-metallic pads, lines, and system bled.

$230 for the front rotors, slotted & dimpled, shipped free. Also he gave me a discount of $20.00 off msrp on their semi-metallic pads which will hold me over until I to my complete overhaul. They offer basic crap pads for free, but I would rather the semi's. If they are any good a pad I just might keep them on.

Directional Rotors

Hey Pockets,
Were there any directions as to which rotor was which? This is left and that is right. I think you have them switched. Although, I seriously doubt that it makes a difference on a street vehicle. Does it feel like it stops better or have you been able to quantitativley verify a performance improvement? By the way they do look nice.
