Just got my rotors today from Rotorpros - I must say, they are NICE Getting them, & new Kuhmo's on tomorrow. Glad I went with them, instead of the Napa one's - they weren't zinc coated. These are also painted a hi-temp silver, I didn't want any rust issues around the hats.





I'll post pics when I get her done

Nice! I've got those on my Z. I would suggest using some wax/sealer on the hats, cause getting the water spots off are impossible! Also give the dimples and slots a coat of hi-temp silver, cause you can't clean the dirt outta there.
