Same price as the one that includes spacers and lines and a bunch of other stuff, so maybe its not priced right yet?

Yes, the disc can be refurbished depending on the conditions which we are waiting for a reply from ST about cost guideline.
As to the color, blue as shown in the pictures is our standard color. The other possible finish is hard anodizing like our calipers*.

Those linked kits are good only for 991 (yellow pccb as replacement or red std brake as upgrade), and not a direct bolt on for 997.2 Turbo S, it requires an adapter (see pic below) to convert 997.2 spindle (142mm mt spread) in order to install those 991 calipers (w/225mm spread), or with RB calipers which are made to the same offset as OE.
Anyone interested in this upgrade please PM or email service@racingbrake.com us for further details.

The refurbishing cost would be about $425 per rotor excluding shipping and dis-assembly/assembly.

The used disc can be re-furbished to restore it's serviceability at a fraction of what a new disc will cost.
This can help to reduce the replacement cost of a new disc especially for track applications but you probably never need it if for street driving.

Burning Brakes
Since we are in the discussion of the PCCBs and I notice something different about yours, I will like to ask a question.
I was looking at the rotors on mine at delivery, and I notice that the rotors are 'cracked'. This is my first car with ceramic brakes, and there is no other car for comparision. Is this normal?
Here are the pictures

Oh wow. Had no idea refurb could be so economical. That brings a new perspective to PCCB costs for track use.
Looks like it, scroll down to the lower half of this page for a description of the process:

Due to the thickness of these CCM rotors are thicker than OE's iron rotors so it involves some modifications - Widening the caliper groove and/or trimming the drum brake dust shield (like GT-R) in order to retain the use of OE calipers.
Porsche 996/997 OE calipers would not be able to retrofit for CCM rotors.
The good news is RB has come up a complete CCM rotor kits using ZR1/Z28 discs w/RB calipers for a plug and play installation.
Typical adapter exclusively developed by RB to convert your earlier 130 or 142mm mt spread uprights to 225mm (997 GT3 and 991 GT3) for more versatility in brake upgrades.
So regardless what size of your brake, 996 or 997 (including Turbo), your can now upgrade to 390x36/380x34 CCM brake kit.
We also have an iron rotor package (390x34/380x30) which is 100% compatible with CCM rotors, so you have total freedom to swap the rotors while retaining the same calipers.
