just did mine and using rotex kevlar gold pads,
only have 100 miles on them so far so I can't really say their better than before nor comment on dusting. The car stops and they work fine, quiet no squeal and a little groan but i'm still wearing the zinc off new rotors and they get quieter each time.
got my rotors from ebay, drilled/slotted/zinc for < $200 shipped all 4. Blanks are even cheaper. Sorry to say but the sponsors need to start carrying more moderately priced stuff especially for brakes. I was really disappointed when I started pricing rotors because i wanted drilled rotors to complement chrome zr1's and polished calipers. Not everyone wants to spend $1000 on baer/brembo rotors or a c5 upgrade. I heard autozone was carrying our rotors fairly cheap and they were good but i think you would still do better for all 4 from ebay stores.

I got slotted, for looks, and hawk pads. If your not a hardcore stopper and turner the autozone specials will b fine. Although the no dust ceramics are nice simply for the fact of no or lil dust.
