front end shimmy

when i brake hard the front end shakes, it does it more when it's raining and the brakes are wet. i assume it's the warped rotors. the car has about 40k miles on it.
how hard is it to fix this? how hard is it to pull the rotors and replace with new units? i don't need super performance stuff, but what's a good brand for rotors?

check out the TSB, they have the procedure.....replace it prob would be the last option. but I think they can sand it down and make it a bit thinner.

your tailights...

dennisuello, off the topic, but how did you get your tailights to look like that? Are those modified 2k2's? They look very nice.
