Big brake kit and represent with the stock Honda H's!!!
If I could use my stock centers on the RPF1's I would!
I agree with Andy. I dont like attracting attention to my stock parts.
IMO black. with stock centers. I think the S badge looks like something out of an APC catalog.

I vote for black on the calipers and no S badges.

Damnit, now I feel like a ricer for wanting to do this stuff

Maybe I should just buy some slotted rotors and keep the calipers stock or paint them black or silver. And idk about the badges. The stock H's on the front and back are perfectly fine and I prefer them, but the H's on the wheels kinda look dull to me.

I guess I could just save the money and buy none of the above mentioned stuff.

Whats the reasoning behind it. I thought they helped? Or is that just in racing conditions.

From what I have been taught at Porsche is that drilled rotors are good for water dissapation under wet braking conditions. They actually in theory reduce the amount of surface area. Slotted rotors on the other hand help reduce gas build up from the heat of the pads!

So why did you say not to get slotted rotors then? Loss of surface area?
