Default My poopy colored stoptechs

Thought I'd post a few picks of my stoptechs after they started to turn colors after my first track event. Went to a gold and then to a brown color which you can see below. Apparently they got too hot Threw in a pic of my cracked hat's for the hell of it. This isn't a bash stoptech post, just a warning to those who might purchase silver calipers. If your going to track your car go with red or black. Common knowledge to many but some people might not know. I'll probably end up having them powder coated when they are getting re-built this winter.
