If you want to dress it up just get some nice Calipers and Hydroboost for stopping.
Drilled/Slotted works great if your on the brakes all the time at high speeds but other than that they are for looks. The most from rotors would be larger ones.

If you do want to do some rotors for look. Get something Name Brand. Drilled rotors can crack easily.
