Didnt you post this topic already?
From what the other members are saying, the brake dust gets better with time/mileage. It just takes a while for them to break in.

I've been reading that after about 500 miles or so you won't be seeing near as much.

The brake dust is what we have to live with because of the superior Brembo brakes and slotted rotors.

You can switch to ceramic pads but you will lose some braking performance.

Guys could always go to harder mettalic pad, that would eliminate the brake dust. Of course others would then complain of the mettalic noise, and the looks they get from the brakes stopping, but then form exhaust when going;)

Hard pads are not avalible for the SRT brakes just stock and maybe a NAPA pad. A hard pad would not heat up quick enough for the street
