Looks good! I just have slotted on my celica. Every set of drilled rotters I've seen crack very quickly. So make sure you check them often!

Drilled rotors are notorious for cracking, the ones you see on high end sports cars and race cars the holes are actually cast and not drilled. As long as you don't get overly hot and then get them wet you should be ok.

My friend had a set for his mr2 for 5 years and it never cracked. Just depends on the quality and driving habits. I've had mine for a year and half with no problems.

If you live in a humid place or somewhere that it rains a lot. It'll probably end up cracking eventually. If not, you'll probably be fine and they look great!

I've seen a couple drilled rotors crack also. If for performance solid blanks work the best imo, more mass and surface area is always a good thing.
