I scheduled to install some xpel ultimate on the front end of my car today.

So far, since purchasing the car last week, I added the porsche 4yr extended warranty, 2 new Michelin PS2 N2 rear tires, and Xpel PPF. Next up, new exhaust. I'll post another thread on that decision process. So many options.

AP J Hook rotors, Endless pads, Giro Disk caliper stud kit courtesy of Clark at Apex.

Stud kit is pretty cool as you don't need to do the double nut method - you can use an 8mm socket on the end. So far I am liking the purchase but need to get some street pads ASAP.

I have a base - they make them for both my car and the S.

Yes sir. The pads were a huge improvement over stock, for a track application. Not so good for the street but I've got some stock pads on the way. I am not sure if I would have overheated with 330mm rotors but these bigger ones should stay somewhat cooler due to size and design. And they look good too

Do the calipers have to be relocated or use a different mount since the rotors are 20mm larger than stock?

I won't track my car, but I would like to upgrade to two-piece rotors for lighter weight and better cooling on mountain and back roads.
Endless pads are really good. I've used Pagid (RS29 for endurance races) extensively on the track with great success too.

However, I purchased . Girodisc which make custom 350mm rotors for the base 330 rotors Zero gap and ring is good fit for the calipers and pads. . Not a sales person for GiroDisc, just a happy customer. You guys can see difference in the photos.
