They were either painted or they turn into what people call brownbo's. The older brembo's had a problem where the paint would turn brown because of the heat produced from the brakes. If you can, get some pics up.

They probably where drivin hard at the track and overheated.Dosen't mean they are ruined just the paint has cooked and changed color.
