Pinoy361 thanks for the reminder, I planned on it but decided to do that today and get it out of the way. Done now, lol, Ordered more G2 and i decided i'm gonna hit the rotor hats also while its up on jack stands.

Right on! Little bit of extra work but looks a lot better when completed! Here are some pictures in process until my G2 arrives. I made a template to cut around the the tape with a razor knife, And yes i used used a basketball to hold the front rotor from spinning while i was cleaning of the rust! lmao!

After painting calipers and rotor hats, Looks sloppy but i wanted to hit the area a little bit and let the brakes make a nice clean circle when i was done

Meant to add this also:: After using the wire wheel and compressed air/ Brake cleaner to clean the rotors off , I also used a Clean white cloth With rubbing alcohol to do a final wipe down on my rotors and rotor hats where i would be painting. I was amazed how much extra dirt/grime i removed!!!! Anything to help the paint stick (just something i think would help if anyone does the above)

I've never been big on hood pins, but I'm sure they'd look good.

I think hood pins would look great on your ride.
I would like to put them on my Boss but apparently we are not allowed any mods that dont make the car faster. The whole "race car for the street" thing ya know.
