I'm not sure about all the other hi-temp paints but the caliper paints I've seen at like autozone were kind of expensive. If you want black just go with BBQ paint, I've used it on my brakes, exhaust manifold, engine, ect. Most of it I did two years ago and no real fading or anything but it is already somewhat of a flat black.

im gettin these: http://aftermarketaveo.com/proddetail.php?prod=FPE0342

with these: http://aftermarketaveo.com/proddetail.php?prod=EDSF0342

i was gonna get the mid grade rotors but didnt see too much of a difference that i would notice so, i just got the basic ones.

yeah, I've got the r1concept 'premium' rotor or whatever they call it...noticed a big difference when heavy braking...

I'm considering a ceramic pad this summer....I've heard they are a little better then semi-metalic and throw less dust...we'll see what happens...maybe one of our vendors could shed some light for us?

Ceramics are supposedly dust-free... that enough light?

[Ron-E-Babe]

so no better or worse performing then semi metallics?

[xtreme 2]

They are better, but not that much of a difference on a car like this...
