I'm heading towards needing to change the P38's discs and pads.
Recently I did the same on my sons Z4 and they looked great through his spoked alloys with drilling & grooving plus the caliper picked out in red paint. However some months and much rain later, while the running surface is OK the cylindrical section and edge of the discs have gone rusty brown and look somewhat naff.
I notice that new cars seem to have discs with some sort of a finish on these surfaces and don't seem to corrode, what is this and can I DIY it? We may have fitted cheap discs made from boiled down scrap and super duper expensive ones may be immune but have any of you guys found something that keeps them looking smart?
Thank you.
