Brembo blanks FTMFW and the best bang for your buck. While your in there, I'd recommend some Hawk HPS pads too.

Cost of resurfacing is too large a fraction of new rotors. Unless you are a hard braker, the inexpensive replacement rotors (Made in China) are adequate.

good luck

^^^ IMO, not worth it. Just swap them out.

Brembo makes a great oem rotor like Falkore24 stated for a good price and you can get better pads with out the risk of warpping the rotors. The china ones are very cheap in price but you will warp them if you brake hard. Just my opinion but brakes are not a part of the car you want to cut corners on.
