Sounds like poor pad compound choice. I had the same problem in 2010 when I tried to use DS2500's in this car, left horrible pad deposits causing the "warp" effect and they tapered badly within 2 sessions. Things just got too hot for them to handle. The good news is I was able to restore the rotors and remove the deposits.

Also bleed the brakes carefully, if you develop a gas bubble on one side of the caliper you will get uneven pad pressure and horrible shudder.
