Slotted/drilled rotors?

All I can see is the top of the hood sticking up above the fender. Hard to care about the pretty calipers when the body is misaligned.

looks clean! cept its gonna be hard to keep clean. the hood isnt necessarily "misaligned", looks like he did it similar to how a lot of us hachi guys do for cooling by shimming the hood in the hinges for some air flow.

Have you tracked the car with that combo? I have, girodisc slotted/drilled rotors, many track sessions without a single problem, not one.

OP, I like the caliper color you chose

Interesting. Seeing how the flow dynamics of the factory vent are configured to take advantage of the Venturi effect, a hood placed in such a manner will diminish the function. Yes, I realize this is Show and Shine.

BTW, what's a "hachi guy?" I searched, but all I could find were Asian kids and old Toyotas:

lol, i think its more for form than function honestly. but yes, the hachi term is for the 86 corollas. i see it done on a lot of nissans and hondas... like i said, more form than function, its just more popular with other models. i tried the look for a bit, but it wouldnt grow on me.
