Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 2Original post

there was also a guy a few yrs back that painted red his rotors and calipers and pads and everything, i think he just took the wheels off and went to town with it But then again, its really not a big deal couse the 1st time he breaks the braking surface will clear up and it will be fine. Funny couse theres a corvette guru sitting next to me and he says that they all paint them like that , so go figure.

POST 3Original post

But would not the brake pads just wear the paint back off?

POST 4Original post

yeah they will, so its really not a big deal at all. another problem is that it doesnt look like a high heat paint either.

POST 5Original post

That first time on the brakes could be exciting! I like step 5. Why would you go to all that work when you have a basically solid wheel that'll cover everything up? Not going to wrap my mind around that logic.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This looks SO cool. Who wants to try this on their boxster? Husker it matches your paint!!!
