Best place/price for front rotors 2001 E55

I'm going to need to replace my front rotors shortly and the So Cal dealer is quoting an arm and at least half a leg for the front rotors.

Does anyone have any suggestions on getting decently priced rotors? I'm even fine with paying a little more to upgrade to something better but $500+ per is pricey.

Thanks

Ken

You would be incredibly lucky to get front rotors for $500 per.

Are you certain that you need new ones? I have had mine cut, instead of replaced.

Did you try them..?, many after markets flows around, but which one deserve to alternate OEM's..?

if you don't want to stick with OEM, there are alternative Rotors to use,,

*also you can try "RB racing or R1 concepts", they are brilliant as well..

They are still in the box, but at $250 to do the entire front with Akebono ceramic pads it seems worth a try.
