Recommendations on Brake disks/rotors (UK)

Hi, (repeat from XOutpost Uk subforum as people may not be aware of its' existence)

When painting my front callipers, decided to check brake disc thickness and they are 2.6mm below the minimum thickness stamped on the side!

Does anyone know more or less how much BMW discs cost (UK) and can anyone recomend a reasonable quality aftermarket replacement if they cost the earth? Are the Pagid or Textar discs from Euro Car Parts any good?

thanks!
Rob
