San Marino Red

NOTE: Milano wasnt an option for 98. Park your car next to a civic and you can tell that its darker.

haha, if your going to paint your rotors, you might as well paint your calipers while your at it. The paint on the rotors might come off after some hard braking.

Why the hell would you paint the actual ROTOR... lmao wouldnt the paint get dimished after 3-4 hours of driving.... calipers and end caps, but not were the pads run.. correct me if im wrong im not to sure but I dont think painting the rotor is a smart idea...

Painting the rotor is the stupidest thing I've heard. Take the caliper off, or mask the rotor to paint it. Don't forget to use high temp paint.

I did a caliper paint job on an old camaro because it was starting to rust, take a kitchen trash bag and wrap it aroundsome of the rotor and tape it, then throw a rag over the axle, take some thinner on a rag and wipe down the caliper, then dry it off, and spray 2 coats of hi-temperature paint on it. Dont paint your rotor for the love of getting made fun of lol.

ps: make sure to tape off the back of the brake pad, only paint the damn caliper, or it will defnitly look rigged. Dont paint the brake lines either, and make sure not to paint your rims while your at it....lol.
