Yeah, the new ones came in last night. I was too tired to take pictures.

I went with the Aerospace Brakes because they're around 15 lbs lighter than Wilwoods plus they're completely polished.

They're definitely rears, and I think the answer to your other question is 'yes.' But don't forget, you can daily drive it

Yes, they're rear brakes. The folks at Aerospace assured me that the brakes are good for driving on the street since the car is so light.

Those cross-drillings don't seem to be going in the correct direction. Are they directional (left and right side) rotors or are they all drilled in the same pattern?

Good question, I didn't even pay attention. They're off the car again anyhow, Aerospace sent me brakes for C-Clip Axles and I need the C-Clip Eliminator Brakes. I'll take a look when I put the new ones on.
