Okay, I finally need Rotors and Pads
Where should I order 2 piece rotors and pads for all 4 corners? I have P31 package and want something equal or better in performance. What options have some of you gone with? Thanks guys!

Girodiscs and Porterfields would be my recommendation. Just did them on my '12 P31 C63 last week.
Pics below of comparison:
Stock Rotor 30.6 Pounds:

GiroDisc Slotted/Drilled Rotor 24 pounds and directionally vented left and right:

Stock Rear 21.2 Pounds:

GiroDisc Rear 14.6 pounds Slotted / Drilled and directionally vented:

End result looks great paired with some new stainless lines and Porterfield R4-S pads:

Absolutely no noise, virtually dust free, great stopping power and an all around performance gain. Not to mention it shaved 26.4 pounds of total rotational mass. Win win everywhere if you're due for new brakes

No it is correct this way..... This is hoe it is descibed in the Giro manual.....I have installed them a few weeks ago and also in that direction......I only have the non drilled version, but the drilled ones look way better

It's not the slant direction of the slots/holes that's the directional indicator. It's the vane direction.
I have noticed a lot of designs are Uni Directional now. Like the StopTech rotors that are available.

Exactly the same.... Giro Disc manufactured these for Evosport.... Identical to the Evo rotors on my E55 as well

I did not unfortunately but in terms of wear my car had 11,xxx miles and they were not in need of replacement... I couldn't tell you exactly what a factory OEM rotor weighs but it couldn't be much more than what I pulled off the car.

Will this setup work on a 2014 C63 507? If so, I'll take a pm as well for pads and discs! All four corners. Drilled and slotted. Thanks!

'09 C63
I have a 2009 C63 on stock 18" wheels without the performance package (i.e. 1 piece rotors)...will these 2-piece directly replace my 1-piece? Or I need to have the P31 package to install these?

That's a great deal of weight savings over the stock P31 2 piece rotors!
This is an amazing setup for those without the stock 2 piece rotors. I can only imagine how well the car launches with over 5-6LBS of savings per corner.
