@websocal here is a side view of my car when it was raining last lol.

BTW can any of you photo shop guys do the gold color, red color and silver color for me so i can make up my mind?? Thanks



you can see the window trim is all black. used some tape from a place online called outmotoring.com i purchased two rolls of the black out window trim they sell for the mini coopers worked great cheap and easy mod if you live close enough i would put it on for you.

Justin, IMO the black would blend in too much, as is the case currently. Silver and gold, while the car is in motion, would still be seen nicely. Looking forward to the outcome with whichever color you decide. Again, love your MRM with the ARKYM CF accents all around

Gold/yellow would stand out. What about blue? Just ordered blue G2 paint for my ISF. I think blue caliper w/ white Brembo decals goes smoothly with SFP. Can't wait to start this project next weekend.

Color matched MRM is my vote. Do you have enough window trim tape left for 1 more car? If you do I can take it off your hands in Dana Point on Sunday.

Is your roof painted or wrapped? Your roof looks like mine but mine is painted matte gray.

thanks i like all the cf goodies too lol wish i had more haha!!

i just ordered color match red from automotivetouchup.com there 12oz aerosol cans and gloss are the best on the market in my opinion they spray so well! I guess color match here I come! Keep us updated on your project

Color match it is! I wish I had enough left I ordered two rolls and it requires 1 and a 1/4 roll to do a car however i messed up part on my first attempt (not bad) but since i had some left over I re did it and did a cleaner job! You should totally get some Ill help you install it only takes like 45 minutes

my roof is 3M brushed steel.... when you see it in person it has a look of a rolls royce hood kinda different

I ordered the gen 1 window trim make sure you get two rolls! If you need help let me know.

Can't wait to do my damn calipers was guna do them this weekend but now this last minute color change has me pushed back lol

I think the darker red would look best.

Not to slightly thread jack.. but when you repaint your calipers, does anyone know what size Brembo Sticker should I use? I know there's different sizes from the 4 piston, 6 piston etc but I'm not sure which dimensions would be needed for the front/rear.

Thanks

your car is just hot murph. My vote goes to gold/yellow; yellow and red go together very well.

I had mine sized based off of pics on the Brembo site. Too big would look weird. Mine:

alright so I ended up color matching my calipers after all this debate and I like it since its not too bold and does not clash with the over all theme of the car.... and once my new concave ADV07 MV.2's in brushed titanium get to me by end of May I think the car should be ballin



it took my 5 hours to paint and i changed my front pads too because i was tired of all the squealing going on with the EBC yellow stuff pads.... now using wearever and i have only driven on them for a week and they work great for daily driving. havent dont any canyon cruising so duno about that lol
