It does not seem like most of the major online parts companies offer the front rotors for a C32. Is the dealer the only option?

Answered my own question.
PureEMS carries a Zimmerman drilled rotor for $105. I had a good experience with Zimmerman rotors on my Audi, so I'm fairly confident about the quality. So, how tough was the installation (I assume you did it yourself)?

Has anyone seen the stock rear rotors drilled to match the fronts? Fifth is PureEMS a member / sponsor of the forum? If not please pass along the info to me in a PM.
Thanks

I am sure that a thread search would turn up tons of information for you in your quest -- this has been discussed dozens, if not hundreds, of times here on the forums.
FWIW Brembo makes a better rotor than Zimmerman....

Anyone know of a a good pad and rotor replacement write-up? I watched buddy of mine replace the pads and rotors in his coworkers Boxter S. He also did a full brake fluid flush. The only snag we ran into was parts. His coworker didn't get the right parts from the dealer, which led to a short set back. We figure it can't be much harder to do it to my C32.
Thanks
Thanks
