To me rusty hats and rotor edges detract from the appearance of the car. The stock ML wheels leave a lot of the rotor exposed. What do you expect from a guy who cleans the wheelwells with each car wash?
Actually when I pulled the original rotors off my ML the hats were still painted black (this was in Texas, maybe here in Michigan the salt would have eaten the paint). Too early to tell how long the plating on the Teves rotors on my "other" car will last.
