www.rockauto.com has Centric rotors for about a good a price as you'll find anywhere. Very good quality. They also have a bunch of pad options, including Stoptech (Centric) Street Performance pads, which is what I'm running now.

Correct, you have to rig something up with the extreme composites hood. Mine clip on to the wipers...not ideal.

ebay special? lolololol

holes in rotors never works out. also you should not have a shake from new rotors.

You get what you pay for!

post some pics.

Honestly, I had one of my shop guys order them for me as he has an account with Powerslot and Hawk. ( racing industry perks )


So hopefully I did not get hosed. ;-)
