Default Anyone put on cheap slotted/drilled rotors?

I have seen a few places selling cheap OEM sized slotted/drilled rotors for the 350Z...like this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2443409958
or
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t133409.html

Now I'd like to get drilled rotors, mostly for the looks since I don't track my car, but I definitely don't want the brakes to be any worse than stock after putting them on. Most of the quality sets I see are about $600-$650 to get both front and back and I know they would be the best way to go, but has anyone got a cheap set that can offer an opinion?

I have a set of crossed drill / slotted rotors from R1 Concept. I think it looks similar to the one on eBAY. Anyway, it works great and seems to bite little better than stock... I don't have any method to test but it just feels better than stock... For the price, you can't beat it!!

I paid little over $300 for front AND rear rotors!! you can see pics on webcarconnection's car. Here is the email address if you want to order one.. sales@r1concepts.com

The bottom link looks like exactly what you have then. 300 for all 4 rotors in that URL. Perhaps I will take the plunge

Do you happen to have a picture of them on the car? With a wheel closeup perhaps?
