ps maybe derailing a little here but are your rotors painted/powdered stock or bought black? Shop go to for powder didn't feel comfortable powdering my new rotors so I'm not sure what I wanna do either leave en polished, find a dif shop thstll maybe do em, or rattle can. Just concerned about longevity with rattle and I'd rather keep everything done right.

You don't want to paint the actual part the pad makes contact with. If you're doing the centers, then **** it, use appliance epoxy spray and call it a day. You can buy black rotors from Lyndall or Brembo, but that's $$$$
Belts might be for pants, but I dig my upgrade. 30T-70T, 133T 1 1/8 belt. SE clutch spring, new tune. Plugged in Autotune for PCV but didn't watch tutorial on how to properly do it, so now need to remove battery box to troubleshoot. Since I ran out of space under the seat I mounted autotune module under backbone between battery & fuse box.
just installed a bassani on it yesterday. I'll have to get updated pics of it with proper exhaust now. Looks like yours is a bassani aswell?
Yes sir.. road rage 3. Love this pipe. Got a great deal on it from Direct Cycle parts.. cheapest I could find. For less than $700 the quality of the pipe is top notch.

The rotors were stock that I had powdered black. Not sure why the shop won't do them, other than maybe they don't want to bother with taping them off and prepping them? You just have to make sure they don't powder where the rotor and brake pad make contact.
I opted for powder because I wanted something more durable on there. Way I figured it was I had to take them off anyway so I wasn't going to half *** it and spray paint them (no offense to anyone who did). But they've held up well with no issues.

What One can do if the resources are available and one's OCD is getting the better of ya...
Tape off the the "swept" area just a tad more to the interior of the rotor, powder coat it, and then "chuck it up" in a lathe and clean up the edge of the coat so that "circle" of powder is perfect.
