Nice. I should probably do this soon too. OEM setup sucks! Excelerate is the man, I recommend buying from him too. Good prices, great shipping.

i gave up on gloves a long time ago
rubber gloves dont last more than 10 mins when im workin on my car,
and the thick gloves dont let me feel what im doing and i can never get the bolt in the hole!!

i dont care about getting dirty, it comes with the territory!!!!
and it gives me an excuse to eat greasy burgers afterwards lol

You may want to pull the calipers off and properly lube the sliders and pad back where it contacts the caliper fingers and piston, its important for the brake parts to move easily.

Grab a $10 duplicolor caliper paint kit from parts store and make them into mini brembos!

MrHeelToe is another fine azine vendor and carries RacingBrake brand rotors and pads

Looks like your front calipers are the same as gen2, in which case the cool upgrade is front calipers for a 1995 Legend LSC, their dual pistons offer a more even and powerful stopping force applied to the pads and rotors- IMO the stuff it should have had stock but....
very popular mod with gen2 owners- $75 for each caliper- same price as TL caliper

Many of us including myself with gen2 are running it- visually the gen3 are a match but I need part numbers to compare
Was hoping someone in gen3 would take the initiative and research, its an awesome mod
I believe the pads are the same for several years- honda being stingy- the calipers may have stayed the same too.
Have a look in g2 threads- there are new pics-install thread on the legend calipers.
One guy powder-coated them so he wouldnt have to do touch up paint before ziner meets~
