cross drilled/slotted rotors/brake discs

has anyone changed their stock front rotors to slotted or cross drilled ones without buying the big brake kit???? i mean, only the rotors/discs themselves??? ive seen brands like EBC, however Brembo does not seem to have one for the C, some sites list them, some dont.

Brembo does infact make X-Drilled rotors for the C-Class.. I ordered them from Evosport for my car..

I believe i was quoted round 165-175.. Ben wasnt sure which price it was.. Either 165 or 175.. Thats for a Pair.. Thats not bad considering the OEM ones are just as expensive.. Plus rears are available as well.. i purchased just the rears because i got in on the C32 Big brake Group Buy for the fronts..

do we need to change our stock brake pads when we change to cross drilled rotors???? am not really after performance, im just curious about the "looks". hey alevy, please post pics if u can. cross drilled looks good with large discs, but i dunno how itll look with stock rotor diameter, since d stock ones arent really that big.

It should look pretty decent.. However im not going to see them for about 3 weeks... The rears are coming with my fronts.. But as soon as i have them on ill post pics.. I put OEM X-Drilled rear rotors on my M3 and i had a brembo kit in the front.. The looked great.. Im not even concerned that it wont look good.. im sure it will
