Thank you! [8D]

After looking at the rotors, I found out they are brembo rotors just with the slots in them, It has brembo stamped in them. I didnt know that.

Not hard at all
I just did them right in my wheel well. Just scuff em up pretty good and thats it. Just stuff the piston so no paint goes in there. It was very easy I painted my knuckles black as well.

I painted them w/o the pads in. They dried for a good hour, still were wet though. I would let them dry over night or something if I was to do them again. Tommorrow Im going over them with paintbrush to fix small spots up.The paint is the only red that duplicolor had in caliper paint.
