Ugly g35 brakes

Thanks man, but I can't afford to replace my brakes right now. I would love to have some Brembos though. I am prolly just going to paint them with that Duplicolor kit that was recommended above.

I just put on my spacers a couple hours ago. I am going to buy that duplicolor paint on kit in black. I am also going to paint the rusty part of the rotor black too. Does anyone know if it is safe to use that "Rust remover" that you brush on rusted parts and it turns the rust into a black non rustable metal? I figure it might last longer/less maint. than paint.

You can fix this issue in a few short hours and you might have fun too. Clean everything and paint your calipers with high heat paint (black) and paint that 1" strip on your rotors after you've cleaned them with steel wool/brake cleaner.This will last for several years and they'll be "Lookin Good!"

Dont draw attention to small OEM calipers and rotors. If you ARE gonna paint them, prep them properly, and paint them a color that doesnt scream "hey look at small OEM brakes!" NO red! NO yellow! I used Nissan paint code K51 (platinum graphite). I painted mine with automotive bc/cc. Im planning on Rotora or Stoptech BBK this coming spring though
As for the hub area on the rotor, spray it with flat black. I cant stand rust anywhere on a car, especially rotors. I sprayed mine but rust still shows a little bit right on the edge where the caliper stops clamping.
