I would think painting them would hinder the cars ability to slow down and would just rip up the paint anyway.

And on that bomb shell Nackerz, get up to 100 kays and slow down pretty quick then speed up to 100 and slow down again. show us what your rotors look like then Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

have a car for your self man. stop using stupid excuses that its half the missus car for things that look off. because its perhaps the worst vl ive seen. take that kit off change lights and take all the things that clearly look ugly on it. and at least try to have a respectable sl turbo.
