Brake rotor hat covers
Does anyone know where you can buy those covers for the rusty part of the vette brake rotor hats? Thanks

since you'd need to remove the wheels to install the covers why not just clean up your hats and paint or clearcoat them.

We just ordered chrome rotor caps from Corvette Central (at no shipping charge!) to replace the red ones we have on the '02. Look forward to receiving them. I think they'll look great with the drilled and slotted rotors and red calipers.

Ecklers sells them, but painting them yourself will save a lot of money.
