Never heard of them. However, another company R1 Concepts does D/S rotors for a good price and sells on ebay. I've heard a lot of good things about them and I think Herc is running a set.

i put in a request for drilled/slotted 12' front brakes I might be mistaken, but I don't think that 12 foot rotors will fit on a grand prix...

For all four d/s, seams ok to me, but some of those ebay co use cheap thin rotors and thats why they are so cheap. I say go with a known good manufacture like Power Slot

haha Well, I bought 12" front rotors with stock rear rotors on ebay last year. Look for 00-04 monte carlo brakes. I paid $180 shipped. Well I just found the same rotors from the same seller for $10 less.... $170 shipped: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy-MON...emZ370016342820 They only don't have the painted hat, but its a killer price compared to 210+ship.

R1 is the company I'm gonig to go with for mine, everyone around here has recomended them to me. I would say stick with R1 or powerslots, or just OEM if you wanted.

If you really wanted to, It would be cheaper to get a can of high temp paint and do it urself... or get a ZINC coating to keep it from rusting up (most have the ZINC coating anyways)

They look awesome, but the outside takes a toll on them quickly. My fins on the front rotors have rust, that is why I just took them off now and painted them black. They don't stay shiney like you see them. Just to let you know.

http://www.grandprix.net/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=009550 I sorta figured. Are they decent quality though, it seems like Herc was happy with them? I e-mailed the guy to see how much shipping would be, no response yet. I understand there are a bunch of varibles that go into brakes (how much you stop, how hard you get on 'em), but typically how long should a set of brakes last you???
