Anyone run Gold Rotors?

masterh · 09-27-2018, 07:49 PM

I am thinking about getting Gold Rotors.

My car is all black so gold rotors might give some accent.

The only parts that will stay gold are near the hub and around the edge. Brake pad area will turn to silver.

Do you still like it after running it for a while?

Never ran them myself, but after they heat cycle a few times and get a layer of pad dust on them.. they'll probably just look yellow.

Just paint your calipers yellow.
