Default Waiting for parts, still detailing

My winter projects included headers, cam, intake & TB.

I've been waiting for the TB forever, so I've been detailing the undercarriage. All the caliper post inspired me to do mine.

1. Removed the inner fender wheels and detailed.
2. Painted steering knuckles.
3. Painted calipers & rotor hats.
4. Painted caliper & brackets silver.
5 Applied silver caliper stickers.

Looking great! Makes me look forward to having another vehicle so I can garage the Camaro and get some real work done on her.

Great job on the detailing...Throw some cross-drilled rotors on that thing & it would look even better!

Default question

Hey does anyone know if there is anyway to clean up some oxidation that happens to the top of the rotors at all,, where i live rain/humidity is a killer and it makes the top of the rotors look pretty crappy.

Paint them with some rust inhibitor when you first get them. There's not a lot you can do now, but a little Por15 couldn't hurt. Just don't get it on the surface area.
