New member!! Wheel and caliper opinion
Hi everyone! I'm a new CL member and I own a 2008 smokey granite mica IS-F since 6 months now. I'm from Québec, Canada, so sorry if my english is not #1 everytime! 
It's time for me to change the rotors and pads on my F, so I decided to paint my caliper at the same time. Do you think that green caliper with black brembo decals will look good on my grey F? I found a picture of a black ISF with green caliper and i really love the final result. I just want other opinions than mine!
Second, I would like to have you'r opinion on a set of wheel; AvantGarde M310 Dolphin grey.
I made a quick photoshop with my car and i think that it fit the car very well.
Thanks for you'r help!!!!

welcome!
before you replace your rotors, who suggested to replace them? i would check before that because if it was the dealer, most of the time they tell you that it needs to be replaced even though you only used about half of the rotor. the minimum spec for the fronts are 28mm and 26mm for the rear. If you are at those number then its time to replace. new is 30mm for the front and 28mm for the rear.

I start to love this color more and more! I think that yellow will be my first choice. Do you have any pics of you'r caliper??
