Default New Disc Italia Rotors Installed

Well, I finally went with the Disc Italia Rotors and Titanium Kevlar pads. Installed them last Saturday, just thought I would toss up a couple pics. Since there aren't many images out there. I am very impressed with the looks, made a dramatic difference!

IDK yet. Wasn't able to weigh them at the time. I still have the stockers, so I will weigh them when I get a chance.
But I can tell you that there was a NOTICEABLE difference when handling them. The Disc Italias felt much lighter, as they should.

I keep the Disc Italia rotors for the track as I had mine cryogenically treated.

Here was mine in 2007

before ............... and after...

This is what I would like to do. If you don't mind me asking, where did you buy them and price? With my wheel set up, I believe they would look awsome.

I used Brakeworld.com and I have no complaints. The rotors are about $630+shipping. Pricey, but hey you get what you pay for, and these just look so good. The rotors and TK pads would run about $870 from Brakeworld.com.

One question.
Dont these come in a left and right side?
Looks like the install has then reversed. Typically you see the slots enter the pad starting at the center of the rotor then sweeping out..better clearing of dust & water.

Who's install? Mine or 007_MI6?

I followed the instruction picture sheet that was supplied with the rotors and I've had these on and off more than a few times now. I'm pretty sure they are correct.

Technically 007-MI6 has them correct, but they other way seems to look correct.

Like the disks, hows the pad performance?
Gotta say I'm a little shocked you didn't clean your calipers while your wheels were off!
