Re: where do you guys get your parts
I just picked up lifetime warantee ceramic pads and 2 rear rotors for 170ish from autozone.
They are stock rotors

Re: where do you guys get your parts
The rotors have a 2 year warantee. SO if they die I take them back and change them. Usually every winter when I put on snow tires I would change all my brakes at the same time and swap out the rotors. The local autozone is pretty good when they are even a bit warped they take them back and replace them.
I always get my money back. They were made by another company but they are designed to be like the stockers same metals and stuff. They aren't drilled/slotted in any way. I switched to ceramics on my old spyder and it didn't seem to effect the rotors really. I had them for almost a year on my old spyder. So I put them back on this one. They don't throw much dust which is a very nice thing. For example when I bought this new car the wheels looked pitted and black they were just dirty from brake dust and a crappy dealer that didn't wash the car.

Re: where do you guys get your parts
Almost every single upgrade on my car, from the rims to the block, was purchased from E-Bay. They have some good looking rotors too, and ocassionally, someone's selling an AEM kit for peanuts. Just have to keep an eye out.
