ok so i have neglected getting pads checked so now i think my rotors are warped since the car shakes when pushing the brake pedal. Anyone know where a good deal to order rotors and probably pads is?

Brembo OEM blank replacement rotors from TireRack and OEM Toyota brake pads from your local dealer.
DO NOT get cross drilled and slotted rotors. Your brakes are too small to take away surface area by drilling holes or making slots which actually makes them less efficient. I have tried a lot of brake pads. Metallic compound pads will make a whole lot of noise and eat away at your rotors faster and groove them. I have tried ceramic pads and they are significantly quieter for the most part, they still make noise but its a higher pitch which is why you don't hear them most of the time, but the compound is too hard and will warp your rotors again eventually. Since getting OEM replacement pads I have had absolutely no noise ever, and they have worn the rotors nice and even.
