Default New brakes for the Cobra. *pics*

The slowbra needed some brakes, so I got an SSBC slotted front/rear brake kit.. They look awesome.. I also painted my calipers red. I pan on touching up around the "COBRA" soon, this was just a rough, get it done, type coating. Let me know what you guys think. Rear pads/rotors go on tomorrow at work. I dont have my caliper tool at home (stupid twist ins SUCK)

I would assume better heat dissipation, less warping... The center of the rotors also have a lot more fins that the factory. The only downside I see is trying to resurface when these finally do get warped. I know they cannot be cut with a lathe..I was thinking maybe a grinder machine shops use for flywheels and stuff... I bought this kit because for OEM parts at my discount would have been near 500$. So if I have to spend money I might as well spend money on better stuff
