Nice! Looks good man. I am waiting for my decals to come in and hopefully by next week I will get mine done. I am still debating on what to paint them....either red or black...with silver decals.

Caliper paint really improves the look of the car a lot. I was very satisfied after I painted mine; I didn't want them to stand out a lot though so I did black with silver stickers. Still looks great though

Hey Brian,

I was leaning towards painting my calipers black with silver decals too. Do you have any pics to show?
