Painted rotors? (brake surface and hub mount) 2004 Mazda Miata 1.8L 4cyl NA. I got rear rotors and pads from Tasca and the whole part is painted. It looks like a pretty thin layer but usually I only see coating in the center. I assume it'll wear off after a short test drive? (I know the brake clips are missing)
