Default Rotorworks...?

So i need to buy new rotors big time. Mine are warped REAL bad. I searched here last night for like 3 hours on the best ones to get. I came to the conclusion that Rotorworks is the way to go. But when i e-mailed them i got this in reponse...

DEAR AARON CHRIST
YOU WANT 100% BLACK ZINC COATING ON YOUR 2001 HYUNDIA TIBURON WITH CROSS DRILL/SLOT AND SHIPP TO ZIP CODE 19464? WHAT IS THE PRICE YOU OFFER TO PAY FOR? I JUST WANT TO SALE NOT TOO LOW NOT TOO HIGH
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU WANT I WILL MAKE IT FOR YOU.
THANKS YOU
ROTORWORKS

I ended up going with Forum Racing for my rotors. $200 shipped for slotted only, black zinc plating. Very slow on getting them out, but I knew going in that it was a custom order that would take extra time.

They arrive this coming Tuesday. I still haven't decided on pads yet.

TIbby01 - Do you mean Blacktibs is working with him to do a GB or just like trying to have some made for him. If hes working on a GB ill just wait. But yea all the threads said good things about their rotors.

My experience with Rick at RotorPros was an excellent one.
Got me the rotors I wanted fast, even painted them for free...and no joke:
when I took them out of the box and laid them on my dining room floor I stared at them in awe for a quick minute.

I e-mailed rick and got the rotors for the GB price. Just e-mail him and tell him Chris (majiktib) referred you to RotorPros for a set for 220.00 I think it was.

To get his specific e-mail do a search for the RotorPro's Gb thread and it's in the last post, or second last post....

If you need pads then Rick can get his customers great deals on those too.
And if you're looking to upgrade your brake lines I suggest getting in on the Goodridge SS Brake Line GB organized by Faithofdragon...good deal.

They don't seem all that bad. I wonder if they have a slotted only selection, and if they let us choose the diameter. Would be great to get those w/the XG350 caliper mod.
