Again, very nice!

What did you do to your rotors?

That's just surface rust. I've barely driven the car in the last 3 months. I spray bombed the wheel wells, tops of the rotors (not surface) and hubs with undercoating. I swapped the front calipers with powdercoated ones already, rears later this week. The undercoating looks damn good.

Come up here and make my engine bay look like that!

I was curious as to the coating/color... been considering painting the hubs and edges on the rotors myself.

Oh man, don't get me started... the transaxle looks like that too... it's my POCD kicking in again.

I can't remember exactly what brand it was. I picked it up at a pro paint shop. I just hit everything with a metal pad, blew it off with the compressor, taped some stuff, and bombed it. It's black as night.

Finally made it to Fastenal before they closed to pickup my order. I bought all kinds of crap...great store. The bolts, obviously not OEM, but I believe better, were $58 for 100. I reused the nuts . Just have to paint center caps and lugs (can't find replacements locally and don't feel like waiting), then balance and mount.
