I'd refrain from resurfacing the stock rotors. Do a search through this forum and you'll see people's comments on them. Fortunately, there are several aftermarket discs to choose from such as Brembo and EBC. After doing researching for awhile, my front runner is the EBC rotor for several reasons:

1. They claim to have their own alloy. OEM metal is too soft.

2. They are "black" coated. I don't care for cad or zinc.

3. They are not cross-drilled, rather "dimple slotted" for disc integrity (no spider cracking).

4. EBC (European Brake Company) makes brake upgrades for a variety of 2 & 4 wheeled vehicles: http://www.ebcbrakes.com/

For EBC, checkout http://www.brakesrus.com/ as they are a USA-based dealer. For Brembo: http://www.nopionline.com/

Let us know your final decision, and find a good performance shop to do the install if you don't want to yourself.
