I recently bought Brembo cross and slotted rotors. I wanted to wait before I put them on, but I was could wait. It rained and snowed and now my rotors are bright orange. How can I keed them looking new, I'm just talking about the hub part of the rotor of coarse(the part that connected to the disk and the rim). Need some advise!!!!

 

it's rust, you'll have to paint them

You don't paint rotors dummy.

 

read what he's talking about, you can paint that part. it's dumb, but he can do it.:slap:

 

should have spent the extra 5 bucks and got them zinc plated.

this is a pic of mine with about 1000 miles on them after spraing them with a hose, didn't even need to scrub.

just a link the pic is kindof big

If you're going to paint the rotor, just make sure you mask off the biting surface realll well(even if you screw up the pads will clean the rotor off for you, just the first few times you brake they may not be happy) then get some brake caliper paint, or other very high temp paint and paint away.


this is the part of the rotor he wants done


here's a diy for that
