When my buddy did the brakes 6+years ago on the prot they were good, there was still life left today but was making some nasty sounds, the friction seprated from the backing and fell out. Well I ordered some drilled rotors for the front and rear, and they also came with pads. At the same time I cleaned up the calipers and painted them to match the car and clear coated them. Anyway was 150 for the rotors and pads from ebay. As for the pink its the brake lube that we use at my job. I tend to go overboard with it. Ill have to wipe some of it off. There nice. Here are some pics.

I figured I could get these cheaper then the stock style ones from any parts places. I also noticed the rear sway bar end links were broke so picked up a set today and will change them tomorrow.
 
You got to shop around. Plus they look alot better. And I also noticed that it stops better.
 
Just be careful of those ebay rotors. I've heard nightmare stories of them breaking easy
 
Its been like 3K and there great, I tend to drive hard, as I have a Mus GT modded and this thing is soooo slow so I tend to beat on it.
