He's not blowing smoke. There are special coating helps keep it from looking bad but then you have to deal with the brake dust and it's corrosion. What dude from Cali has Rotoras on his ES?

I had some Powerslot rotors on my Acura that were made from a silver alloy or compasite but they stayed silver the whole time I had the car, which was like 2 years.
