Default Question on Upgrading Brake Rotors on 04 Saleen

Hey folks, I posted a few months ago about getting some work done on my SC 04 Convertible Saleen and I am going to start the process in about 2 weeks. New Motor, heads, cam etc. At the time in my thread someone possible Jazzer the Kat mentioned brakes. I am taking their advice and upgrading the front rotors, and going with Stainless Steel brake lines, and hawk pads. I am leaning towards the Baer Decelerator Rotors for the 99-04 Gt as that is what my brakes are now. The car never got the brembo upgrade. What do you folks think of those rotors? Along with the SS lines and hawk Performance Ceramic brake pads.? Now I was planning on doing just the front brakes and getting the calipers powder coated either black or yellow and putting the saleen brake stickers on them like the brembos? Do you see any issues here? Also does it make sense to do the back brakes as well? Finally where do you think the best place to go to get this would be at? Thanks for the help and feedback. I have a budget here that is why I am not upgrading Calipers at this time.
peace

Doesn't make too much sense to do the back brakes since the front brakes do most of the work on your saleen.

Thank you Evil, that is kind of what I thought. Do you know anything about the baer Decelerator Rotors? I like the looks of them and Baer has always had a good reputation from what I know anyway.
