nice. i got mine black too

black is the way to go with stock calipers!!

 

Looks good indeed!!

 

looks nice, but you need some dubs on that ride

No way man, looks good the way it is. Nice job Johnny

DaveGS4 - the anti-dub

 

i'm just still trying to figure out where the word "dubz" came from...love the work though!

 

Yeah, who started the Dubz thing??

 

Dub as in "dub sack", a $20 bag of that good smoke if you know what I mean.

J Mo, looks clean dude, tight work!

 

yeah..i like the calipers...looks good!!

 

Now that's the RIGHT way to do it! No "fake" look there! Looks good Johnny!

 

Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. I still need to paint the hubs (silver) but I'll hold off a bit. It's the best I can do since I can't fit a big brake upgrade in with these rims, and no way my wife'll be happy about me having 2 sets of spare rims.

Unfortunately not much call for 17" rims any more so selling them and getting good money for them is pretty much a pipe dream. Especially since I have a set of 5 on my OZ's and my original 16" Platinum wheels, not many people care about having a matching spare...am I the only one THAT **** about the "little" details?

 

Johnny,

I'd suggest you to paint the hubs black to match your calipers. I painted mine black and it look good. Another benifit is you don't have to worry about clean the black brake dust on the hubs area

 

hey low did you get the lexus symbols on your calipers

 

Looks good. Where did you get the Lexus letters?

 

Wow, I hate to be the party pooper but that looks awful. Also please do something about those awful swirl marks, yuck! If you want help please PM me.
