Hey Guys, looking to replace my nasty white disc cover in the rear with a black one. Anyone know where I can find one? Looked on the sites I know and havent seen one. All seem to come in white

Something to think about the stock plastic one has give to it or will break if something hits it absorbing the impacted energy a metal one can bend you’re caliber the energy from the impact need to go somewhere I much rather replace a $15.00 plastic rotor cover than a new caliber assembly.

An option might be to clean it real well and use krylon fusion plastic paint.

wash it and soak in a batch of black RIT dye.
Been doing that for years with the R/C cars

+1 on the RIT dye thing. You can dye/change colors to most plastics w/that stuff. Ive seen gas tanks to skateboard wheels done w/RIT. All w/ excellent results.
