    probably wrong place to ask since im domestic, but does anyone recommend a brake place, ive been wanting to be able to see all my options.i can read about everyting but i rather see. also whats everyones thought on slotted orcross drilled?
    also i took the car out for a drive for about 10 minutes, got brakes hot and did some hard braking, got home and all the overspray was GONE. i thought it might work that way but the way ya'll have been dogging me i was getting worried. if theres a next time i will remember to mask off.

    Just brakes 99.95 all 4 corners, i'm sure they have touch up paint too.

    Slotted eats pads preventing them from glazing during spirited driving. Crossdrilling does absolutely nothing but look cool and cause cracks from extreme temperature changes....water puddles during hard driving, etc.

    As for the overspray, I know braking didn't cause it to just fall off the shock or non contact areas of the rotor, as in the entire center and outer edge.
