Default 350Z break dust

hey everyone. I'm new here and also a new 350Z Enthusiast model (one week of ownership). One thing that I've noticed is that the car has alot of breakdust in the fronts. Is there anything that can be done to combat this or am I just stuck with it?

Do a search and you'll find a bunch of information on this topic, but Hawk pads are a better solution.

paint your rims to match the brake dust and you'll never ever have to worry about it ever again...the factory pads were engineered to wear out much faster than the rotors.

HPS have very low dust... but they also lack initial bite...

NISMO pads have very low dust... but they have awesome initial bite...

For the 2005 G35 w/ the 2 piston front brakes and 2006 350Z's it requires the 2006 Front 350Z brake Pads

Besides the other 101 “brake dust” posts, this is the first I’ve heard about it.
