replacement front brake rotor rings for sl65

I found an old post that evosport offered replacement rings for the front brake rotors but their site doesnt work. Are they still in business? Anyone here just replace the rings? Any recomendations? Im replacing the car in a few months and rather save some money if I can. Its a 2006 sl65 and it will need the rotors replaced in this case. Ive checked mymercedesparts.com and parts.com. If I have to Ill go that route but if at all possible Id rather not.
thanks!

evosport is gone. try racing brake rotors for a full replacement or you could contact coleman rotors and they can make rings in any style you want. you will also need all new hardware, clips and springs

Thank you. I'll check with both. As far as the hardware goes do you mean I need to replace what secures the hat to the ring? Where would I find that and the specs for it?

Will do. I spoke to coleman and I think I am going to go through them. I am going to take my rotors off in a few weeks to send to them so they can make exact replicas, assemble them, and send back to me. We will see how it goes.
