Default Brake Upgrade???

So its not a bad time for new brakes on my 04 ultra sport and im trying to decide, anyone who has had anything or experiences, please chime in im looking at doing either

brembo or zimmerman cross drilled rotors F & R

and either MINTEX SBF (some kind of organic, zero dust pad) or Axxis PBR ceramic pads

painting the calipers RED - please tell me what kit u used to paint if its lasted

and Stainless Steel brake lines

thanks in advance the the help!

Default don't paint the calipers unless they are upgraded

and no pretty rotors and pads don't count :-)

Save up a little more and upgrade to S4 brakes

painting the calipers is really the least of my concern, im really looking for stopping power, what all is in the S4 upgrade?
