I think that many of us are on the fence between sportbrakes and Corvette garage's rotors. The shipping costs would definitely push me over the edge in favor of Nate's. Mrgil did you try speaking to him about covering a portion of the shipping? Otherwise I will be going with the sportbrakes who will cover shipping for corvette forum members.

I never thought choosing where to buy rotors would be so frustrating. 
. I was sold on the Sportbrakes until I saw their picture posted here (I just sent them an email asking for pic's before I saw them here) and I don't like the way they look. One row of holes for the rears and two rows for the front. They're not uniform enough for me. I'm game if we can get the price down to at least 3 bills. mrgil do you know how many serious buyers you have confirmed? Maybe you should have everyone that is serious send you a PM so you can keep count. Just a suggestion.

pills are in order. Nate gave us a great deal on the Halltech Stinger and I just don't think we need to squeeze the last drop of blood out of the turnip with the rotors. Count me in. 
Let's start this New Year off with a little kindler gentler forum, how bout it all you rocket scientists out there 
Had to end on a light note.

Rotors
How's this for an idea (it was suggested by another forum member)
If anyone out there has a pic of their Sportbrake rotors installed on their car that shows the complete drilled and slotted configuration then I would like them to post them here (front and rear), and likewise if anyone has pics of Nates rotors installed on their car that shows the complete drilled and slotted configuration then they should also post them here.(Front and Rear)
Since we all agree these are a cosmetic mod I think the best looking one should be bought. We don't have to agree on which looks better cause beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think everyone can then make up their own mind which one they want and "I promise not to try to change anyones mind."

I see 7 Slots with 2 rows of 3 dimples between them for a total of 7 Slots and 42 dimples.
do you agree?
