if you want to go for something a little easier to install then look into a rotora kit.

I just installed my rotora kit this past weekend and lemme tell you it is an easy install. May be a little more pricey then some used brembos but you get drilled/slotted rotors and red or blue calipers if your looking for something like that

I agree with the rest. Alex Just look into a Rotora Kit. Unless we go junkyard hoping and find one on a TL...which is less likely to happen.

I only did the fronts for now but may do the back in the future when its time to change them if I have spare cash laying around. Or I may just get rotors and paint the rear calipers red to match.
