rotora rotors on ACP.com
damn dealership wanted $480 to resurface my rotors. Welp, that just tells me to get new ones now since that would have been my second time doing it and I would just need to replace them shortly afterwards anyways.
I saw the Rotora Slotted rotors on ACP. com and both the front and rears for a pretty good price. (not sure what other prices are out there, so they seem cheap to me)
Is that just a simple replacement or do I have to do other upgrades or whatever?

Yes, Raptor. Rotors and pads are all that is needed. Keep in mind that this new set-up really won't improve stopping distances much, if at all, but brake fade should be reduced over OEM.

I put these on my car,, direct replacement rotors and pads on front,, pads only on back,, I didn't turn the back rotors and everything fit fine,, I did notice stopping power did increase and the brake dust is a lot more than stock,, if this helps you ???,,
