I know quite a lot about the ceramic brakes, we have a Carrera GT which uses PCCB ceramic brakes as standard, we replaced these with Steel disks as when you use them a lot on track days they dont last long. and at £3,500 a corner to replace its not exactly economic. The pictures shown of those discs. They are shot. UNusable and NOT machineable. What looks like where some paint has peeled off, that is actually the carbon ceramic coating that is the braking friction surface. Once this starts to come off, you have to just toss them away! Sorry to put a downer on you, I would love to see a bug with PCCB brakes on. Try looking at AP Racing Carbon Brakes. These are cheaper than the Porsche carbon ceramics and just as good. We use them on a RSR Race car and when u stand on them your heart just wants to come out of your chest! Good luck with finiding some new discs
