Imitation disks ???

Has anyone heard of an imitation disk , apparently its used a lot in custom cars .
This disk sits on top of existing disk and your brake pads it gives a much better appeareance you cannot see the brown rust colour that develops on the disks , its a visual enhance ment for your brakes , has anybody heard of this product and were can it be purchased.?????

Its not much point in painting your calipers if your disk look rusty, this product will hide your disks and give them as new appearence., i hope.

I Purchased a Mazda 6 wags about 3 months ago and was slightly depressed with the rust forming on the disks only a month after ,so i went out to Autopro and bought some of that UHT Brake caliper and disk paint for about $18.00 bucks.....its a weekend job if you into getting your hands dirty but well worth it ...they still look new !!!!.

Hope this helps
