Just a quick note. Cross Drilled rotors will fracture over time unless the
holes are moulded in when casted a la' Porsche.  Waste of money unless
you're a big-time race team like PTG. Slotted rotors are better, but still
won't give you the cooling that simple brake ducting will.

Better to convert you car to M3 brakes off a wrecked M3 using the Euro
2-piece floaters on the front. THEN you've got brakes. Course, ya gotta buy
17" wheels but then your car looks even kewler and handles better.

Now, if your're just a 'boulevarder' and want them slotted rotors for the
looks alone..well dat's another thang all together.
