rotor and pad help

ey so my brakes are pretty much k.o. and my good friends at hendricks said to go ahead and get some after market rotors and pads and they will install them.

i wanted to do this already, but this is perfect.
im looking for a good cross-drilled rotor and possibly ceramic brakes. whats the best combo?

Take a look at DBA (Disc Brake Australia) 4000 series drilled and slotted rotors. In Canada Infiniti, dealers sell them as upgrades to the OEM rotors. As for brake pads, take a look at Hawk performance ceramic pads. With the non-ceramic Hawk brake pads, you will have increased brake dust, as the pads are more aggressive than OEM pads.

OCAutosports Cliffhanger - crossdilled, slotted or both... I have them with Hawk HPS - happy so far.

OCAutosports pricing and customer service are exceptional!

Checkout RotorPros, they use Centric blanks and do slotted/drilled/dimpled rotors. Same quality as StopTech and R1 (both use Centric blanks) for about half the price.
