Cheap Mod
 
I was thinking of little things to do to the SS today, so I went by my local auto parts store and picked me up some paint.

Before:

Just the Caliper's:

I didn't like that so the final product :

With the Wheel on:

What do you think?

better

djsanchez2 10-04-2008 08:29 PM
I did that on my Z. Looks really good, but would look even better with "chrome" CAMARO decals and a few coats of high temp clear. :D

Easy and cheap mod.

Nice. Paint the rotor hats!

djsanchez2 10-04-2008 11:02 PM
The center lip part will have enough room for "SS". I already have mine ready for the SS, but have not gotten the time to do it yet.

That's what I did a couple of weeks ago as well as the rotors' hats.

1600x1200? Really? Come on. . . A monkey can resize a digital image nowadays. Rotors looks good though.

please spare me that. it looks very tacky and does not compliment anything. your entitled to your own opinion but there is a reason this is not a real popular thing to do. to the original poster it's your car and do what you want but coming from someone who has built real show winning cars ie world of wheels not some rinky dink high school show i'm just giving you my opinion.

I wont be painting the rotor hat's,its just not a good idea.

And I just took the pictures off my phone and posted them up, sry if there to large.

LustrousWS6 10-05-2008 03:46 AM
Looks good. I gotta do that soon.

THROTTLEJUNKIES 10-05-2008 04:38 AM
Holy huge fuckin pictures batman

Mohammed 10-05-2008 05:47 AM
what brand are those rotors ?

meatman 10-05-2008 09:38 AM
Looks good. Paint the rotor hat centers, it will look way better.

Sounds like some of you guys need to get some bigger monitors. Pictures arent that big.

IMO, painted rotor hat centers look much better than rusty rotor hats. I can see yours are starting to rust around the edges - just wait until it goes all the way around.

If you're looking to win shows, you shouldn't have rusty rotors OR painted rotors, right? :eyes:
