Anybody got the hookup on slotted front rotors?
I'm going to replace mine since they're warped again... looking for the best deal. I want slotted, not cross-drilled. Different brands are acceptable.
Any suggestions?

If you are willing to experiment, If you buy them new and drop ship them to me, you pay postage both ways, I will powder coat them for free in a color of your choice that will withstand sunlight, weather and salt.
This should look pretty trick. I am already doing calipers, check with smitty, I did his. Even though the rotors have to take a lot of heat, powder coating should do the job. Powder coatings are now used on Weber BBQ grills, which can get to 600F+. And if you can get your brakes to 600F+, you don't need to worry about if the powder coating stays on, you'll need to be worried about brake fade at that point. PS: Steel/cast steel or cast iron turns brown at 600F. It turns blue at 800F. My rotors have always been silver.

I've found Power Slot for 171.79 shipped at www.ultrarev.com
And Rotora for 165.90 shipped at Streetbeat Customs
Does anyone know of any quality difference between these two? Should I pony up the extra $5 for the Power Slots?
