Well I finally got around to matching the back of the rear drums with the rest of the rear end. Used plastidip lol

Hell, if it will last (which I'm skeptical) I would do it.

Looks good! I'm interested in seeing how the PD holds up with brake heat.

I actually used some on the rear end and it's held up just fine, I'll watch it on the brakes and let you all know how it does

Please do. What is it that other people use...something like POR15?

I used engine paint on my drums which has held up quite well.

Nice. I actually still have most of a can...maybe I'll just hit the rear axle for now and see how it looks after winter.

I originally used high heat paint on the rear axle and differential but then went back over it with plastidip to cover the spots I missed and it has held up good

Just checked the drums... they're looking good so far. No peeling or flaking off
