All of that is cool except those lights. Trust me, my car had those on it when I bought it and they will look disgusting man. But it's your vehicle and you can do with it as you so please.

where did you get the rotors?

mustangmike! · August 11th, 2011, 06:30 PM

rotors +1
headlights -1 ( now i kinda like that regular projectors, Ive seen both on cars the halo's just have a funny look about them ... )

6ER THEN I 8ER! · August 11th, 2011, 06:41 PM

i dislike the rotors...i'd rather have slotted only no drilled...i prefer not chancing a cracked rotor due to hard braking (which on the backroads i travel is constant)

i dislike the headlights for two reasons...1) the light output sucks compared to OE headlights...2) halos

but hey it's your car...i neither have to drive it nor see it daily

mustangmike! · August 11th, 2011, 07:39 PM

i dont see how slots and holes make brakes better anyways ...
Less traction

RedDevilGT · August 11th, 2011, 07:49 PM

I think's its for cooling

mustangmike! · August 11th, 2011, 08:00 PM

never had a problem with regular brakes ever lol

Lumoon · August 11th, 2011, 08:09 PM

cross drilled and slotted rotors are "supposed" to cool the brakes and rotors and keep the pads from sticking or becoming heat soaked and not working at all. In reality an average person does not drive hard enough to need the slotted or cross drilled rotors. So for the average person these are actually a safety hazard as they will fade and weaken over time and eventually they will either crack and shatter or will increase brake pad wear as the surface of the rotor is textured and not smooth thus eating away at the pad quicker.

If you are worried about your rotors heating up and failing, go buy a set of $2 air tabs and bolt them to the under side of your car inline with the rotor this will channel the air flow at the rotors and increase the cooling. Just an idea.

And for the rear brakes you can make your side scoops functional.
