Time to change the rotors...
OK gang need some advice, next mod is going to drilled rotors. This is a bling-bling mod. Can you point me to some info on what's available and the cost?
Thanks!

Sportbrakes are about $250 for the set. I have the Baer Eradispeeds and they were about $700 with pads.

Stop recommending Sportbrakes.....no one has been able to get in contact with Raz in a month to my knowledge. I went with the baer eradispeeds. Definitely the best bling bling looking mod in my opinion, but you are going to have to be willing to pay for it. Unfortunely, you just missed a very enticing group purchase.

I will agree with Icemanskis, I have tried UNSUCESSFULLY for 2 months now trying to contact someone from Sportbrakes. E-mail after e-mail as well as phonecalls. I do not know what kind of shop they are running there, but it sure is unprofessional and they are losing ALOT of business. I am going with the GM slotted/drilled rotors and will paint the hats/inside of the vents etc. They look pretty good and are GM approved if that matters.

I got the GM Durastop drilled and slotted rotors from GMPartsdirect.com for around $300 shipped. You will have to check them to see if the price has changed. The only thing I will reccommend is to either paint or get covers for the centers as they will rust the first time you get them wet. I have had them on for 6 months now with ceramic pads, and I love the look and very little dusting on the wheels now.

Some of you guys spend entirley too much time on the Forum. The C4 section was never like this. Oh well, guess that's the price I pay for buying an '04.
Dwjz06, MSGvette,99R&W, IcemanskisJDs00pewter, and you too CAJUN, thanks for the info.
ET, and your adoring fans, just put me on your ignore list.
