All right my front brakes have had it. The rotor are most likely ten years old. I have replaced the pads though. I want to get a new front brake kit. Who makes a good one that is cheap. I know one places that sell the cobra kit for $399 which includes calipers, 13" rotors, pads and brake lines. Does anyone sell a better kit. I would like to go with Baer if I can find a cheap kit.

I have the Cobra brake kit from PPI that you are referring to. It is a very nice kit.

I don't think you're going to find a better new brake kit for less money than the cobra setup. The cheapest I've seen from Baer is their Saleen front kit for $600 on sale. I'm not sure that kit is worth the extra 200. If you're going to step up to that price range then you may as well ante up another hundred for the Brembo '00 Cobra R front kit.
Also, remember to make sure the new kit will fit with your rims (if you get something other than the cobra one).

I can vouch for the PPI brake kit. it is badass and has every thing you need except for some fresh brake fluid.
