Painting rotors

How does that one guy stand up straight with his feet all pointed out. Seems like it would hurt or blow a knee.

You guys seem to be dying for an update. Well it's finally installed after a couple coats. Calipers are too mainstream so I left those stock.

Some people need to be on the track for 30 minutes to get the brakes to glow. I can do that on idle

Gotta give it to you for being a good sport!

A part of me really wants to see what happened after he drove a couple blocks with those.

Oh why thanks pal!

You guys are missing out. Out of excitement the first thing I did was take it to the track. You should see the look on those 911 owners faces when I make better time than them! Except for one Lotus driver. That asshole did the same thing to his rotors...

I'm going red and switching to a 4 bolt hub to save weight.

This thread is getting better and better.

Finnegan · 04-09-2015, 04:25 PM

I'm going to lighten my unsprung weight with blue anodized aluminum calipers and hats.

Maybe go 4 bolt too!

Note to the OP--we do go off on "tangents" in threads from time to time.

Its actually both amazing and scary how many painted roters can be found with a google search.

seank · 04-09-2015, 10:07 PM

I hope it is okay that i am laughing. If it is true, i am going to laugh even harder.

Great thinking Nate, the red should help you go faster too.

Nuts! I need to rethink my color choice.

RossBMWZseries · 04-10-2015, 09:10 PM

All joking aside, does anyone know the specific yellow color (code) on Lamborghini calipers?

This is a serious question? It doesn't seem serious.
