Default cross drilled rotors keep pad "grip" up, and they look racey...

...Porsche likely uses them for both reasons.

Default You need a logo on the front calipers...

I know they are ST's...but that black needs the slightest bit of bling...

I found a guy on ebay who die cuts logos...He may be in jail right now, but I bought two sets of brembo logos from him...

Default Lol, yep. Carnuba with light cleaner took them off... have to be careful as you'll uncover paint

flaws as well ie bubbles in the coating.
