Default Any pics of painted rotor hub or rotor hub covers (Ecklers')
Really not happy with the rust on my new rotors (NAPA) on the rotor hub area. I want to either paint the hub area directly or get rotor hub covers from someone like Eckler's. I am inclined to do the latter just because I don't have the time to take each wheel off and do all the work to clean and paint them.

I would like to see pics you might have that would show me what I am thinking about. I've even seen chrome rotor hub covers.

Thanks

LOVE the red rotors. They would look great on mine, and I may just give em a try. Be sure to post pics of the finished project.
