On a serious note, the rust thing on the rotors is fine. It should disappear after you use the brakes a few times.
Would the Mugen rotors rust like this?

Re: Rusty rotors? (IGGY)
I noticed that, but i hate rust. I was wondering if it later would cut grooves into the rotor when i brake.

Actually, I think that you have nothing to worry about from potential rust damage.

Does anyone get rusty rotors when their cars sits for a while? Mine do, even if I drive, it is a matter of hours before they start to rust again.

JDM rotors don't rust because they are made of a higher quality steel. What you have are the rotors that Honda sourced from General Motors. They are the same rotors you will find on an Oldsmobile Alero. That is why they rust . . .

I always drive my car around the hood for a few minutes after i wash it (rarely) to get the water of the brakes. I dont care about the rust so much as the squealing....

Re: Rusty rotors? (Soup ****)
Those are nice but are too much for what they are designed for:
For autocross and drag race only (limited to a short time race track driving) - Road race version under development. Road race version is expected to be released in 2003
