Excellerate and Mr. HeelToe not suitable for you? Or you're not aware of them?

They are both site sponsors and have Rotora and/or Stoptech.

Check the BlackMarket under Sponsored Sales and Vendors (something like that )

ROTORA Slotted rotors are an excellent alternative to the OE discs.

https://acurazine.com/forums/sponsored-sales-group-buys-10/rotora-slotted-drilled-slotted-rotors-special-cl-tl-tsx-324531/

Keep in mind to that Acurazine vendors support Acurazine financially so that Acurazine can offer free membership. When you buy from ebay and outside vendors you are supporting ppl that don't support Acurazine. Plus AZ vendors have pretty competitive pricing.

Also, you will get what you pay for. Buy ebay rotors and they sure will be shiny but the quality isn't usually there.

i just bought a pair of Rotara Slotted rotors and pads from excelerate...here's my 2 cents on ebay and other places...
1) definately, reazlize the upkeep it takes for such a forum as large as the AZ one...so if you're gonna be putting a few bucks into anything, might as well contribute to a good cause...aka AZ
2) vendors like excelerate are efficient, and have many AZ members to vouch for (me recently being one of them) ~ i placed my order, he got it processed that same day, so long as you call him early afternoon EST ~ and it was shipped promptly
3) if you ever have a problem, you know our AZ vendors aren't ducking out...and in fact quite the opposite will probably go on a limb to help you extra...especially since customer satisfaction is extremely important for them...
4) Rotara is a great brand, and for everything all together about 200+ is not bad for 2 rotars and 2 pads...when you take into account the quality of the brakes and the reliability.

anyway, regardless of picking from here or ebay ~ Rotara is a pretty good replacement for A/T TL's.

You could paint the Caliper to get that aftermarket look.

This isn't an Acura but here is a picture of some ROTORA Slotted Rotors and Hawk HPS pads on a WRX I just did. I also painted the calipers and brackets while I was there.

if you want to save money, the whole "drilled" + slotted rotors versus just slotted rotors debate is that you can probably just purchase the slotted rotors.

but if you're also going for looks then get the drilled and slotted.
