Are you looking for oem style? I installed new brakes on my sister's car last week. I used Centric Premium rotors which are essentially blank rotors with a durable black finish to the rotor not including the friction surface. They look like high quality imo. Another alternative is to buy the basic blank rotors such has Raybestos or Wagner blanks and take a day or two to spray them with primer and a few coats of black or gray enamel. The latter alternative is cheaper, but kind of a pita to spray and respray. Don't get brake cleaner on them because they will smear. You can spend a few bucks for the Centrics for perhaps a more durable finish. That being said, I sprayed my current slotted rotors almost 3 years ago and they are fine.
