i have a '90 legend and i was told that i needed new rotors when i had a
brake inspection. of course i dont totally trust them, so what is the
minimal thickness recommended by acura for my make and model? it's not in
the manual and it's too late and cold to go out and check the stamp on the
rotor! thanks!

The absolute minimum thickness is 21mm (just over 13/16"). That's measured
from the deepest groove in the surface.
