Default caliper question

I have a set of 95 4 pots at the machine shop right now making caliper relocation brackets to fit on my cressida but the only thing I don't like is the bulge going over the outside of the caliper or will this go into the bore on the front of the caliper. I was wondering if this can be machined flat like the supra so I can put TOYOTA across it in the same spacing and font as the infinit on the g37

yes it does, cannot be machined flat.

Numerous reports of GS/SC owners who try to grind some material off the bulge for wheel clearance/tie rod clearance who end up breaking into the internal passage, ruining the caliper.
