    Today I picked up the powder coated rotors, and installed them. These are going to look sick with my new Forgiato rims.

    looks good ken. are the rotors the same color as the caliper??? (no jokes people, it is a serious question!!!)

    i am thinking a black caliper or something that matches the paint graphic color. either way, love the look of the car way better with these wheels vs. the others. well done for sure!

    btw, how did you remove the powdercoat from the pad surface area???? if you did the ol' hit the brakes hard routine, better go back and clean out all the piled up excess powdercoat that will be built up around the pads!!! lol been there done that!!! hehehehe

    Thanks Chris... Yes I used the same color on the rotors as the calipers, and yes I did the ol' hit the brakes hard routine, then cleaned out all the build up around the pads.
