Everyone who asked what he did with the rotors read this post, post # 5 in this thread:

wtf? how does this answer the question if he painted the rotors?
Brand new rotors are NOT shiny! He replaced the rotors. Look at the before picture you can see the uneveness of the rotor face and the after pic is smooth. In post #5 he was explaining how he painted the hub black.

but without lines.. i thought he prolly got them re-surfaced, and for some reason painted. 
The whole front surface of the rotor shouldn't have been painted. I painted a little past my line and they now howl like a dog. I can only imagine what the whole rotor would sound like. Let us know
