I searched Advance Auto for rotors and they had nothing made by Bosch listed for a 2003 Boxster S.

I wouldn't want to judge parts from now days to parts bought years ago.

These guys specialize in brakes, rotors and brakes are the only thing they sell. They are not a seller that sells anything from a cigaret lighter to brakes.

Amazon has them

Amazon.com: Bosch 42011136 QuietCast Premium Disc Brake Rotor: Automotive

Advance doesn't build anything, neither does most anyone else.....they just sell them. Bosch is an old name for some time. I used these on my E36 and my 01S....good results

Those are nice. Found them cheaper at O'reilly auto parts.

I want to stay with the same brand front and rear. So I went looking for the rear rotors and they are not drilled. but they sure are cheap in price.
