yep...ceramic will be your best bet... you will still hve some dust but very minimal and it wont be black... it should be a very light beige color.. dont be surprised if you may need rotors a little more than usual cause of harder pad... but in the long run you will like the less dust, better stopping capablity etc.. what i mean by needing rotors is that you may need them a little sooner than normal but nothing like every six months or anything like that..

also i would stay away from the brake dust shields.... they tend to stop air flow also and cause brake hardware to run hotter and will tend to warp rotors
