Ceramic Brake Pads/Slotted/Drilled Rotors

Last year I bought a set of Brembo Slotted and Drilled Rotors, along with Satisfied Ceramic brake pads. I have yet to install them however cause of my fear of failing, but thats besides the point. Right now I am noticing alot of brake fade when coming from high speed down to normal speed on the freeway. I still have no pulsing, but it just seems like the brakes I have right now are just a little too worn or something to work good enough for me. A friend of mine said that my rotors could be glazed, and I am not sure what that means. How much of a difference do you think I will see in replacing the rotors and pads? Should I wait and get some new 2 piston calipers, or will I see enough of a difference with just the two mods I have. Cause honestly I am not made of money, and I hope this is enough to make my braking experience a little more confident in the long run...
