because right behind the logo "BREMBO" you see the factory tiny little caliper LOL plus BBK's arent that smalll they are called BBK's for a reason.. the calipers arent that small/thin...

The front's are painted but the rear has covers on it.. you can even see the factory shim/fitting kit

LED conversion is done all over the place. I'd like to welcome you to 2009. :)

I don't know if its just the pic, but the white LEDs seem so bright at night. Looks cool, but seems like it would be a distraction.

It's not actually. It's gives a calming feel for me. If it is too bright you can always dim it.

You can't adjust it. It doesn't allow. It just picture look so bright. That's my photo skill issue. It's actually bit brighter than I tought at first look, but you get used to it.

you should specify that it's ONLY you who has done that LED swap and
that you are the ONLY one who has put that fake BREMBOs on your car :p :uh:

your title makes it sound like all koreans are doing it :egads:

Brian, don't do red, go Black, Silver or Gunmetal. No flashy colors on a luxury car mang

Guys,

Do you guys do LED replacements for the instrumental lights in US? I live in south Korea and check these out what they do here. I have already spent a couple of grand and feek like have gotten only half way. So much trendy culture here.


anyone know if there is a DIY floating around to do this?
This being change the LEDs from the ugly green on the console to another color.

I find that there are way too many colors in the car... blue (dash), green (console), yellow (dome)... it's kind of annoying lol

MiamiIS350 05-13-09 06:47 PM

I'm going to make Endless brake caliper covers and sell them on ebay and make millions!!!!!
