Ceramic = Not good for daily LA driving... IMOHave you driven a Cayenne with them yet?
They are much better hands down then the standard brakes. I drive my Cayenne every day and love it.

We swapped out a set on a GT3RS at Fast Forward Performance on Friday and noticed a track upgrade was sharing more noice when we compared the two. Looks like there was some give and take from the situation on that particular set up. 20K upgrade from Brembo on that quick-relase set up.

The details...... 
At the shop the calipers are stripped down to the core, after which they are prepared for paint, we paint using a PPG product for paint, we then allow to cure, hard-bake and cure again. The decals are positioned and applied, after which we paint, using an industrial clear coat (sorry, I can't give out the info on out clear products) and again cured, hard-baked and are allowed to cure....
Work is completed in around a weeks time. . . Los Angeles area.... Monterey Park, CA
Oh, and one last thing, the decals for the Cayenne fronts are larger than those traditionally used on the Porsche calipers so we stock those sizes now. . . . I have a set that I'll be doing this week for the Cayenne so I'll try to pop off a couple of photos.
