You could bring that down by a couple hundred bucks by going with OEM parts (Zimmerman, Textar) if you and your shop are comfortable with that
OP says just front Rotors though, An indy should be able to do both sides in less than 1hr, so using rates previously shared, should be about $450.

Steps to replace the rotor is to remove wheels/tires, remove calipers and hang out of the way, undo one screw holding rotor, remove rotor, clean and prep to install new rotor, install new rotor, put caliper and wheel/tire back in reverse order. Not very hard at all.

FWIW, the last set of rotors I bought were R1 concept slotted at about $280 shipped for the pair.
