Any leads on where to get OEM brake rotors and pads?  Or a place that'll do the labor for "reasonable".  Also wouldn't mind getting Hawk HPS pads or equivalent just for a little extra braking power.

Lots of interesting options - where are you located?

Toronto (Dundas St W and Dufferin)

I've noticed on eBay there are a few sellers selling OEM rotors and pads for about $100 shipped, but unless I'm buying a brand name from eBay I'm always a bit hesitant (cheaper rotors = rust, crack, warp, generally suck?)

In an ideal world I would be getting some OEM blanks or Brembo blanks and a slightly upgraded pad like HPS or EBC Green Stuff or equiv.

Not brand picky for the Focus and wouldn't be adverse to Canadian Tire, if you guys said their parts were reasonably priced. Right now they are having a 2 for 1 sale on pads and rotors for example.
