Default Cross drilling rotors

How many of you have had it done ?
If you live in So-Cal, who did it and what did they charge ?

Shadow, talk to Vince at C H Topping, (562) 432-0901, I think that he charges around $35 per rotor, and does great work. He is in Long Beach, and is only open during the week. Tell Vince that John Bremner sent you....

I wouldnt cross-drill stock rotors, they are already weak, you are better off buying some gas slotted rotors.

the problem with gas slotted rotors is they do not turn well, and the only time that I have damaged a drilled rotor was on a road course

Well, i am against drilling or slotting, nothing better than a disc that was already made that way. I have seen many stock rotors fail, and slotting them doesnt seem like a good idea.

Update:
I'm not going to cross drill my stock rotors. I am going to buy some instead, that way I will have the stock one's to put back on if I ever want to return the car to stock(I have kept all the stock parts I have taken off)
