Looks nice, would get some wax or Sealent on the paint. Car covers can sweat. Even if it's just a spray detail wax. But it's a lovely motor - how does the car pass the mot with that tow hook?

Cracking pic that Skullfudge just robbed it for my wallpaper lol. Gold could be a good idea, it used to be a brighter red than what it is, may paint it bright red again to match the front calipers.

That will all depend upon the direction of the vanes in the disc and not the grooves on the outside of it

Next time the wheels are off look at the vanes in the vented part of the disc - if they run directional they should scoop the air, ie they should point down at the front to take in the air as the wheel rotates forward

That assumes that the OPs rotors are AP and not another manufacturer, or the same type of rotor, the dimples on my PFs run the other way to yours...

I was thinking the same Tony. The gold Rota's look very inviting on a nice black example.
