Vibration when braking....
When I hit the brakes @ speeds from 100 - 155 mph, the entire car vibrates... don't know what it could be, I'm suspecting the pads are shinny and need to run a sand paper through them or the front rotors are bent.... By the way my car is an 05 regular brakes 6mt coupe... Any suggestions greatly appreciated...

Sounds like your rotors are warped......

Yep you're warped. Same thing happened with my car and I got the all the rotors machined and the rear pads which were almost completely worn down replaced. This was after 35000 miles. The whole thing cost me somewhere around $350 at WheelWorks. Now braking is as smooth as new. Man where are you able to drive 100-155mph without getting caught?!?

Let Me Just Add One More Fact..... This Happens Only At High Speeds, Not Vibration Or Wabbling At Low Speeds.... 155 Mph On I-95 Nb Before Delray Bch 0750 Hrs M-f..... Heheheheh 
you might be able to get the stock rotors sanded down but if you're driving at 100-155 quite often.. upgrade your brakes!!! you need to!!!

your rotors got over heated in some spots and now when you break those spots are wider then the rest of the rotor so that is where ur vibration comes from
Take it to the dealer and have them spin ur rotors, It is covered by waranty, Free of charge,
and you deff need better rotors if you always drive that fast
