Does look like a good idea...nice.

Just out of general interest how much coin did you shell out on the type S DBA's ?

Also it doesn't look like you have but did you machine the extra mm off the rotor ? I'd be thinking about halving the rotor life by machining a mm off it to begin with esp if you use metal pads like I do....I replace the rotors and the pads together..about every 20kkm

One thing I have noticed tho, not all pads have the same amount of material on them when new, depending on brand you might find that some pads will fit with the wider rotor out of sheer good luck.... I noticed this when I recently tossed my old rotors for new RDAs and bought some EBC greens at the same time, they seemed to be a just that bit thinner than bendix metal king...but I didnt measure so I cant be 100% sure.
