Default Painting Brake Rotors - Legend Lime?

I know this topic has been beat to death, but I really can't decide what color to paint my rotors. I know the whole red thing is pretty obligatory, but I'd like something different. However, I can't think of another color that would go well with a legend lime Mustang. Hell, I'm not even sure red would go all that well....

Another question, what is the best agreed upon kit for painting rotors? I know some people have mentioned a kit sold at Autozone or some place like that. However, I can't seem to find it on their website. I guess I'll do some calling around today....

I ended up going with red. Can't go wrong with red....

I started at around 5 and finished by 7. I put the tires back on at 9 (two hours later like the instructions said). I'll probably drive it in the afternoon.

Here are some pics. I did it quickly. I started out like Picasso then finished like a monkey throwing paint buckets at a wall.... too tired.
