New Brakes - Whudda I get?

My front rotors are bad from my pads wearing out and scraping. I need to redo the front rotors and the pads for sure... how much am I looking at cost wise?

It's a 12A automatic, i don't need anything bad ***... just something that will stop the beast.

Napa's website says they can order front rotors for $18.49 apiece.

My SE rotors were $80 CDN and the 12a were $70 CDN (apiece). You'll also need inner and outer bearings and the seal if you want to replace everything.

Maybe the rotors can be saved, that way you'll only have to buy the pads. You should have a shop look at them just to make sure.

It's possible you might only have to have them be resurfaced and that's cheaper than getting new rotors. Like the guy above said, take it to a shop and have them look at it.
