Anyway, I think I'll just wait until I swap out the stock, rusty rotors with something lighter and nicer. I'm just too lazy to paint 'em. Heck, it already took me a long time just to paint the calipers.

Aside from the rust on your rear rotors, that looks great! I think the colours go very well.
I'm painting my calipers this w/nd, red on my bb, with the rotor hubs painted black.
Will post the finished result

I painted the hubs black too. Although it did help look a little better, there was still plenty of rust on the rotor face and tops. Water would hit those areas and then dry out over top of my painted hubs. Thereby showing a rust color on them anyway.
Worth my time? I guess. But if you're truly looking to get rid of the rust, stainless rotors are the only way.

Not a great picture, but I love having mine blue. Red is so played out.
