Amigo525, a bit off topic, but I just had the 50% huber optik done this morning on my side windows and 40% on the rear. Found it a nice balance between heat reduction and not being too dark. Will post picture soon

Thanks Rudy! That's why your rating is a specialist

No problem. The more I think about it, the more I'll bet that he washed the car then spent some time polishing and waxing it. It was during that time that the rotors became rusty.

Either way, the car looks fantastic!

[quote name='gmartin' date='Aug 26 2004, 09:09 PM'] I noticed the brake discs are rusted in a number of the pics but not the last. Is this a common occurence and is there any solution?

I think that's a result of him washing the car before taking the pics.

Most rotors will develop surface rust if the car sits for a little while after being washed. Most people don't notice it because the rust goes away with the first or second brake application when driving. [/quote]
Mine will rust before I can get the car dry.
