The rusty rotors and crappy looking calipers that were on my car were an eyesore



I tired fooling myself with these …. But it was just lipstick on a pig.



I thought about doing the Z06 caliper swap ..... until I realized I would have to use spacers on my wheels to make them fit.

So .... I picked up some powder coated rotors and calipers.

Looks good. They were the stock Z51s?

Thanks for the positive feedback.... I was on the fence for awhile trying to talk myself into doing it.

I wanted to post the results for those of you who might be in the same boat

FYI … I originally bought the caliper covers as a “band aid” … they were an improvement over what I had … but I’m much happier now

Just a matter of time AND you will see some rust somewhere especially on the edge of the rotor. Cheers!

looks good but if you paint the inside of the wheel black the barrel you would have a complete clean look but thats me

What rotors and pads did you go with?

Well done. Lesson: If you know the difference, do the right thing. Looks much better now!

Yup, you got it right and I agree on the covers as a solution. Good job!
