Try www.ecstuning.com, www.awe-tuning.com, and www.stratmosphere.com. They have several selections for rotor and pad upgrades.

Replacing the front rotors on the A6 is pretty easy, unbolt the caliper, remove any retaining screws (if your rotors have them) and simply pull the rotor off.

The caliper brackets have to come off also.

I think your car uses the 288mm rotors. You can get Zimmerman OEM replacements for $35 a piece.

Make sure that you always replace the pads as well at the same time of you will ruin your brand new rotors. I learned the hard way. The old pads that I had on there scorched and warped my rotors. Beware!
