look at the OP's 4th picture - I wasn't "looking" for it, but anyone with a set of eyes can see this.

I never said to get rid of them. I have d/s rotors too (like many on here) and you'll never see this much rust on mine (or anyone else's for that matter). details fellas, details. you can safely paint this part with grill paint. would complete the look. right now it looks undone - like a hot chick taking a photo of herself in the bathroom with a turd in the toilet. she's hot, but there's still a turd in the toilet.

nice man, question: how much did you lower the damn thing?!
and also, how much those rims run you? they're excellent!

shouldn't take long at all on a hot summer day - take off the wheels, tape off the rotor surface, scrape the rust and paint. i bet you could have both sides done in less than 2 hours (plus drying time).

from that point of view i guess you're right
my point is no one really gets that close
