You can get Sebro or Meyle high quality non OEM brakes pretty cheap from Pelican or eBay.... I saw a set of Brembo front rotors on eBay a few months ago for around $160... that's a deal too.

Whatever you do, be sure to get anticorrosion coated rotors OR hit the semi-conical rotor "hat" section where the lug bolts screw in with some high temp paint prior to installation. Otherwise they WILL turn a nasty shade of orange.

Be sure to use a) loctite and b) a torque wrench when installing all of your brake components.
