You dont paint rotors.... that's stupid. And I can do it but you'd be paying some money.

See..

G2 Paint: $35
Rotors: $200

Your paying almost as much to have it installed as you would buying it. Just DIY, its real simple, infact the painting part is like paint by number you feel like a 4yr old..

i actually meant to say paint the calipers and install the rotors and pads. i have already painted rotor caps.

but if the caliper painting would be too much, all i need is a rotor & pad install for front and rear?
