      you need zinc coated rotors...I made the same mistake buying non zinced ones.....UGLY!

      You can sand down the hub of the rotors and paint them etc etc, but the outer edges of the rotor is a different story. I won't be putting the time into making them look good, I'll just be buying new ones.

        well mine are the stock rotors, I was thinking about buying new ones but they are really expensive for my budget right now, thats why I wanted to see If I could clean them, I dont mind if it takes a lot of time.

          sandblast/sand the center and paint it. Stay clear of the actual rotor part though.
