Questions for Rudeney and Glyn M Ruck.
I'm a little disappointed with my Slk55 brake. I bought the car almost a year ago, put on about 12k miles and never abuse the car at all. Lately, my 09' Slk55 w/030 Performance Package lately is getting a slight pulsing/vibration when step on the brake only at high speed. No vibration under normal braking. The dealer want around $2300 (front rotors $900 ea., pads $180 and sensor) for parts, labors and taxes. I can buy all those parts online for around $1700 and install it myself, which I will do. But before I replace the parts, I want to try something first, which Mercedes does not recommended to do. Since the vibration/pulsing is very little, I want to have the rotors resurfaces if the rotors still got enough thickness on it. It could be the front rotors or the rear. What do you guys think? I really got nothing to lose, right?

If you have adequate thickness. Nothing wrong with having them professionally ground.
