Hey what did you use to spary your rotors with?

Then obviously you had them turned... Looks really good. I might have to do that next

actually, look closely in the first picture and you will see that he used blue tape to mask off the contact area. Also, I am assuming he used the dupli-color caliper paint.

I actually used duplicolor hi-temp red spray paint....but never had them turned. They were new rotors from "rotors on-line.com".
