Best place to get stock R56 front rotors and ceramic pads?

Just scored some R56 calipers to put on my R53 (same as the R53 JCW brakes). Now I need to find rotors and ceramic pads.

I can't seem to find any stock rotors on line...only slotted, drilled, etc.... Not what I want. Just plain stock rotors are fine. Ideas?

Second question...best place to get ceramic pads. I put the Carbotech Bobcats on my R53 for reduced dust and it seemed to help...a little.

Thanks!

We have some great plain face rotors that are very affordable.

And for pads we have a few different ceramic pad options but the EBC red stuff is our choice

One last post. My brake sensor light hasn't illuminated yet so I assume it can be reused. Since these brakes were originally for the R53 as JCW I assume the old sensor fits.

You will need to replace the sensors if you have them. Here's the cheapest I've found.
