New rotors FINALLY

My new rotors and pads came in today.

Looks like I am going to be busy this weekend installing brakes....Anyone wanna help? I also got the Dupli-color Brake Caliper Paint Kit and I am painting the calipers red. I will post some before and after pics next week. For now here are the new rotors. Let me know what you think.

I would change my rotors, except I cannot get the stupid wheel locks off my car.

Can't you take it to someplace like Tire Barn and get a new key?

I got mine from Ebay. A store called R1Concepts. All four rotors, zinc plated, cross drilled/slotted, & Axxis semi-metalic pads shipped for $260. When you order them is when they are made. They also balance them before they are shipped. The pics don't do them justice. You really can't tell by the pics but the slot ends are a diamond shapped cut. Check out their store for all the details. Took about 2 weeks from the day I ordered them. A week to get made and a week to ship from California to Indiana.
