As a fellow TL owner -
BTW i have 13", 2 piece, 4 pot STOPTECHs...Doing 100 miles daily @ 80-100mph and slowing down every other minute, the brakes are worth every cent. Never had an experience with brake fade when the kit was put on. Before the kit; all i smelled was my brake material burning up, along with the brake fade...slowing down from just 85-90mph two - four consecutive times. Great mod for the money... purchased from vendor mentioned above along with every other performance part on my TL and supercharged CL.

The stoptechs are holding up great; i check the pads and rotors every oil change; don't see any drastic wear and tear. I just wanted something different, thats why i went with the stoptechs this time..
But both are similar in performance in price...just depends on which sticker you like better on your calipers

I actually had both brands before; but not on the same car...I had the 1 piece Rotora on my supercharged CL for around 8,000 miles...the pads were getting a bit low...but maybe its the way i drive i don;t know...but a great kit for the money over all.
