Well, if money is not an issue than you could look into the cobra brake kit for a decent kit or you can go w/ something super nice like baer, brembo or ssbc.

Some advice though, dont go straight through the company. You can usually get stuff alot cheaper going through other dealers. Just look around and you will find some good deals.
