second coat of cmx ceramic coat
Did the first coat 2 weeks ago
The second coat seems to pop more than the first alone.

What year?

I have same paint with Scratch Shield and I don't know if it'll be a challenge. I've heard the self healing properties only last a few years so it might act like regular clear now.

Yours looks great!

Oh man, I saw your post and just figured you sold it. LOL. You still need those extra Hotchkis sway bar bushings?

It really changes the dash, like a fancy watch. Particularly in AT cars because they have those curvy trim pieces in the center console.

Rusted Rotors after wash
Not today, but over this past weekend after my wash I noticed my rotors looked super rusted. After driving awhile they cleared up, but I’m sure it’s time for new ones. Kinda want something not to outrageous in price, but looks cool behind my open wheels (slotted, cross drilled, etc)... any suggestions guys?

If I were to buy rotors again I would not do slotted and drilled. It's an old look.. And the holes make noise.

I would go with sprinkle slots... And 2 piece of in budget..z1 has the cheapest option on these.

Flash rusting on the braking surface area of rotors after a car wash or even just rain is perfectly normal even on brand new rotors...it disappears when you drive a block or two and brake a couple of times

Completely agree. The Z1 sprinkle slot 2-piece is a very appealing upgrade.

Exactly. It's OK to want new brakes, but flash rust on the rotors is a poor excuse.

Wrong place for this discussion, too, since the only thing Eesofreshhh did to his Sedan today was wash it and daydream about brakes. (Been there )
