Default Bear rotor mod, polished hubs>>>

I was finishing up polishing my last caliper bracket and wanted the hub on the rear brake rotors to shine... Sooo I polished them and do they ever shine.

Unfortuanty (or not) we have way more skilled people than we have need for moderators Todd is definetly qualified though..

And regardless he knows what a valued member of this forum he is. Todd definetly has his game on and brings a lot of great ideas to the table

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Just wanted to share something I polished again.

unit213...Thanks for those words, looks like you have the need for speed and bling, as you know I do to. I could not be a moderator even if I wanted to, I just do not have the time. The nice thing about this board is we are all kind of moderators. What can't we do besides lock threads? We all play under the same rules, even moderators do. We all can contribute equally or more than the three amigos. I really enjoy chiming in the way I do, thanks again for the kind words.

Although...I like reading the moderator marker, and can not reply, lol....we should, and have it not move.

The main thing is that we all learn from each other and have fun.

I did spray them with clear coat to prevent rusting, same as the caliper brackets. They should not rust since there was no visible coating that I removed.

I still can not believe the shine!

Again, thanks for the kind words from everyone.

I am still cleaning for the show and shine on Sunday.
