I bought the baer 1pc rotors for $485 shipped in a group purchase a while back. They are extremely nice looking, but expensive. You could also go with Sportbrakes, which are slotted and drilled for only $250 shipped and zinc coated. Make sure they are zince coated so that they do not rust. Check my sig for the baers.

Just out of curiosity, which way are the internal vanes of your rotors directed in the picture you posted. Do they point to the rear or front at the top of the rotor. The reason I ask is that on the sportbrake rotors the slots are opposite from yours. I see you still have the rotor hand sticker on and the rotation is right for the right hand rotor. I just want to make sure I mount my sportbrake rotors on the correct corner.

All vanes, regardless of rotor manufacturer should rotate so that the vanes blow the air from the center to the outside of the rotor.
You never want to pump brake towards the wheel bearing.
