Default Caliper Paint ~Gunmetal 03 Coupe~

Im back, and the latest improvement is the break calipers. I painted them bright orange. Depending on your resoultion, they may look a little red, but trust me they are construction orange. I have gotten so many looks. Once i put 19's on it, they are going to stand out like nothing else.

Before


After

The color in this pic makes it look like it clashes with the tinted out amber reflecter. But in person, the lights are so tinted out it looks awesome, if you look further down you can see its so dark you really dont notice it.







Back soon with new exhaust kit and springs.

Dont copy. Create.
See ya.

heh. it was fun while it lasted, eh? what's the number to the place in marina del rey again? i still need to call them up for the caliper nuts and will probably order some replacement parts so that i'd have them handy next time i get brakes serviced. i keep misplacing that d@mn number.
