Default Where to buy brake pads and rotors?

It's time to replace my front brakes. Does anyone have a good source for front pads and rotors? Not looking to upgrade to a BBK, so stock is fine with me.

Default i bought my

cross drilled and slotted rotors from ecs, and also hawk brake pads. i was told they are thicker than oem but at the same time i was also told that i was over charged. might want to look into that.

Default Find a good local parts place..

...that specializes in European parts. I bought new pads (ATE) from a local shop in San Diego and they were far cheaper than online when you factor in shipping etc..

Default If you are looking to stay stock but..........

would like an upgrade in braking performance, we have PowerSlot slotted rotors and Hawk Pads for the car. These will fit directly on with no changes to the caliper or carriers. They are stock replacements but offer better cooling and better bite with lower dust than stock.
