    Brake rotor painting advise required

    Lads,

    Looking at painting the rusting brake rotors on the 320d. Looking for advice on what colour to paint.

    Thinking Matt black) gloss black or silver, what do ye think?

    I would go with primer grey colour, that's OEM.

    I done mine with Hammerite Silver. Brushed on and it's been fine.

    Eventually went with satin smooth black, was looking for Matt but couldn't get any, sorry to the purists out there, just feel that black suits it a lot more:
