Brembo do not sell any slotted rotors for Camrys.

All of those Brembo slotted rotors that you see, are custom slotted.

yes if you do slot a blank rotor you could really hurt the strength of the rotors if not done correctly.

I'm pretty sure half of the rotors that you buy off shops are custom slotted, I've seen way too many Brembo slotted rotors that look totally different.

Important Note: Proper slotting of a brake disc does not run off the outer diameter of the brake surface.
This method can promote cracking as all brake discs expand with their release of thermal energy.
Just get slotted, I've got mine on since a month ago and they're pretty good.
