Default Anyone Fitted Replacement Discs?

Looks like my discs may need replacement and if you've done this I'd be interested in knowing:
discs bought,
where from,
cost, and
comparison with OEM

Any input welcome

Yes

I bought OEM front discs from hardtopguy, with shipping they were half price of what a HondaUK dealer wanted. Had them fitted by the dealer.

If you need some front discs, I can get hold of some used ones (less than 1000miles) at a very good price. PM for more details.

Calipers available too.

OEM could mean two things...

Original Engineering Manufacturer

or

Other Engineering Manufacturer..

safer to say Honda and keep the OEM for other stuff
