Default 07 OEM sport brake kit problem

I just recently purchased a pair of front 2 piston calipers and rotors from an 07 350z to put on my G35...they didn't come with pads so I was wondering if anyone knew the part# to get a set of aftermarket one's? I was gonna get the Hawk one's but I usually use Akebono pads. My car is not used for track purposes...just daily driving. I was also going to powdercoat the calipers a color but wanted to see what everyone's vote on color was...here is a pic of what my car looks like now...

If the callipers are from a 07 350z then the pads are for a 07 350z. Right?

if the calipers you got are 1 piston, they are not from an 07 Z

as mentioned, the pad obviously has to match the caliper - the car has nothing to do with it

Endless also does nice pads, depends on budget you're looking to stick to, and what your expectations are
