Whoooo hoooo (LS400 Calipers)
Just wanted to share how excited I am. I got home from work and a package was waiting for me on my front door. Yup, 1998 LS400 calipers... Can't wait to install it but I still have to save up for pads and rotors. First step on these ones I guess is to clean them up and maybe send them out for powdercoating 
. Any suggestions on what cleaning chemical to use and what color to change them with? I have a silver on black sc400 
Here are some pictures.

Will do... Thanks
So i've read... Only way to find out is when I finish putting it on and trying it for myself
Not sure as I have not took measurement of the stock one. Hopefully this weekend. The stock one looks like 2/3 its size tho.

Paid just the price they are going for plus shipping. The seller is local but too far to drive so I paid the extra $15 or whatever... How much did you pay for yours?
Anyway, still deciding on the color. I'm thinking glossy look like black. I think i'll leave the rear as is but if I find a good deal out there then i'll probably jump on it too.
Show us how yours look when its done.
