Default Got Bored Better Right?

Well i read a thread on here about redoing and painting the rotors and calipers. Plus Rust = Sh1tty.... Anyways, i took 100 grit sand paper and just sanded all the rust "visible threw the wheel" away to shiny new look. Eventually i want to get some slotted and drilled perfromance rotors and some paint for my calipers. But does this look good or no? looking for some feedback and or ideas possibly? Well this thing rust up fast again??

Thanks -Joe- PS: in the pics the first pic was when i was done sanding and stuff. "looks alot better know since i sprayed all the dust and stuff off with parts cleaner.

It's going to rust again no matter what you do until you buy zinc coated rotors.
