Is that laquer high-heat resistant? I think I heard about it somewhere, and that its a brush-on instead of a spray?

Please get me the most info you can about that so that I can do mine asap.

Thanks, and by the way, we have 20 now for the illuminated door sills, will it reach 100? Hope it does !!!

If anyone has friends that would like the illuminated door sill plates then you guys should count your friends in one this one too.

Why don't they use polished rotors so that they won't rust?

If you get aftermarket rotors, which are not that much more than stock they are coated so they do not rust. Not only do they look (slotted or drilled) better but the center will not rust.
