I called Brembo a week ago and they didn't have a brake kit out yet for the 04. Im not sure that those rotors are brembo. They did say you could get away with using the rotors from the 03, but they were a little smaller and there was NO warrenty. Please someone correct me if im wrong.

That car is too much grey. The cleared lenses and the grey wheels take what little color is left out of it.

Those are rotora's, they also come in red.
Is a rotora kit, about $1,500.00 for the set.

In case it was not, all TL's already have ventilated disc. If they are not ventilated, then they are solid, like the rear ones on the TL.

I don't think they are cross-drilled, I would guess they are dimpled and slotted similar to the ebc rotors.
They do look great, but I would have upgraded the rear caliper and used a larger rotor back there.

you can get very similar wheels by SSR at tirerack.com for $350 apeice...
they look almost the same to me. minus all the screws of course, which i dont think look all that good on a TL anways.

the rears are not. (suposed to be like this \ too not like this / )
i have rotora rotors and on the box it said to put them like the fronts are.
i put them on like the rears tho.. (slot like this / on the left side) cuz the pads will last longer and the braking difference isnt really noticeable anyway..
so bitium was right
btw, if u still dont believe me look at this, it's right off the rotora official website.. look at the 6th pic of the first column... it's the right front wheel...
