Default MY03 Brembo Disc/Pad Reccomends?

Having just returned from my cars first MOT the tester said, "you could really do with new discs and pads up front mate" No problem I thought One call to my local Dealership later and I'm in shock!!! £973.21 for new discs and pads up front.
My Dilema is thus: do I bite the bullet and pay the man or do I "Upgade and pay less" If I upgrade what to and where should I get them from?
Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved.
My car is a 2003 STi UK.

Redstuff pads with standard discs from camskill.
About £90 for the pads and £180 for the discs.
2 hours labour tops to fit.
Does your dealer wear a stripey jumper and a mask?
