Default Rim caps

I figured I would mix it up and paint the center caps to match the body color and the badge to match the silver rim. I figured I could find a transparent sticker to go over badge. No luck. Mentioned to daughter the problem and she said she would take care of it. A little red and black paint and here we are. Not sure where she gets the steady hands from.

I'm not too sure about the red center cap but the crest sure looks good!

Maybe, I’ll look into. If that’s the case I will be a bit annoyed considering I just had a ppi done 2k ago.
Anyhow it stops, no vibration, no noise, no pulling so no rush.

Just look at how deep the grooves are in that rotor.

The back rear is the only one that looks like that. I ran my finger over, it feels fine but with the drilled holes who knows. I’lol look later on.
funny I was expecting either good job or it’s not stock reactions. This one was a real punch to the gut.

Common everyday shop/owner not doing it right.

If it stops for you , go with it.
At end of day, I always change rotors on my cars, Turning around here cost similar as rotors on most cars (i.e. not P Cars
