Exclamation Where to buy Brake Rotors

My 06 XKR with Brembo Brakes needs Rotors all around. I like the Cross Drilled ones. If been searching all the Vendors that I know, SNG Barrat was the only site I could find that offered a complete set. Where do you guys shop for after market Brake Parts? Also I was going to replace the Caliper Mounting Bolts, but can't find them listed anywhere?! Where do I look?

I am not affiliated with them but I have used Welsh Enterprises.

Check the hub portion of your rotors as later models have additional holes for two additional fasteners. The part # is C2N3427.

Note these, like many aftermarket rotors, are not zinc treated meaning the hubs of the rotors will rust. I painted mine with a zinc based primer and it has done the job nicely.

I've gotten brake parts from PartsGeek and found their prices to be reasonable.
06 2006 Jaguar XKR Brake Rotor - Brake - Brembo, Brembo Coated, Centric, EBC, Eurospare, Genuine, Pilenga, Winhere, Zimmermann, Front, Rear - PartsGeek

Like Marc suggested, some paint on the hub area is a good idea before installing to keep a cleaner look.

JPEC shows the caliper bolts as different part numbers for the R package vs non. I thought the calipers were the same, but maybe the R bolts are painted or some such.

Brakeperformance.com I've used their brakes on 3 vehicles, and they are by far the best components that I've ever seen. Even my buddy that ran a brake shop for 6 years says the same thing.

Thank you for the info on the Caliber Bolts, went back to my Jaguar parts PDFs. Still can't find the front Bolts. What Site or PDF are you using?

I have the Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalog installed. Almost as handy as JTIS.
