Looks good,
Do a little personalizing.

Looks good. So simple and cheap and adds so much. Just did my calipers in yellow (matching the car) and the brackets and dust covers in gloss black behind black powdercoated Cobra wheels.

Are you talking about my rotors? If you are they aren't chromed, they are platted (I think with zinc) so they won't rust. I got them off ebay for $98.00 for the set and that included pads. You don't want to chrome your rotors, if you did the pads wouldn't grip very well.

sorry to hijack the thread but i have been wanting to do this but i can't seem to find the dupli-color kit in black, has anyone found one and at which stores. i tried advance auto but they say they can't get any. i would spray paint them but i'd much rather do the brush on kit
