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.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've got a hold of a set of rotors and have some time here to get them painted up before I install them. I'm wondering what colour guys normally go with. I'm not looking for bling, just to avoid the rusted orange look. so: 1) Black to match teh brakes calipers 2) Silver to match the wheels What's the norm?

POST 2Original post

Yes - that's what I was thinking...too bad since I have black paint already but getting a hold of silver paint will involve a traffic battle this afternoon. cheers

POST 4Original post

Find a paint that will tolerate the high heat associated with that part.

POST 5Original post

Rotor hats should be SILVER to match the rotor!

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I found some silver wheel paint which was "formulated for extra resistance to heat and brake dust etc.." I'll post pictures soon of the finished job but it will be a while before they are in service. I'm hoping they don't come off too shiny and all....still it will be better than rust coloured.
