    It's pretty hard to screw up a rotor. They only go on one way...

    That is like saying uni-directional tires only go on one way...as long as it is not on the opposite side.

    It should be on the car like this:

    HPTuners / Intercooler / Devil's Own Meth / 1.8 SLP Rockers / 3.1-3.3" / 180° / TB Shield / FWI / PLOG / Jimmy-C Downpipe / U-Bend Delete / Mark VIII Fan / Alt. rewire / FP rewire / F-Body Brakes / Buick Strut Braces / SLP Tips / 20% Tint

    The brakes won't go on if the rotor is on the wrong way... If you can take a picture of your wheel on you're fine... You can put uni-directional tires on the wrong way and never know. They don't look a whole lot different. Rotors would....

    You can put the left rotor on the right side, just like you can put the left uni-directional tire on the right side. It makes them backwards, not flipped around like you are suggesting.

    That is the correct way that you have it installed. The slotted rotors will throw the gases to the outside of the rotor, not the other way around.
