Wow I think I might do that. What paint did you use? Does it last long or do you have to re paint every couple weeks?

Look at your last pic..............I think you should've done the dust shields as well. Good job though.

I did this recently as well. But instead I just took the rotor off. I was doing the calipers as well.
