I like them but havent had them on long enough to give an educated opinion on them. They ride great compared to stock. As far as maxxed? I dont know really but the subframe is mere inches from the ground. I may raise it just a bit.

LOL good eye, I was hoping no one would notice.

Yea I got lazy with the taping so I just painted everything, I figured there wouldn't be any harm done since the pads are replacable anyway. I don't even think I had to tape off the rotors either because I accidentally got some paint on it and it rubbed off, oh well wasted tape.

I just got the car so the mods are being done in baby steps, I'm sure this doesn't impress any of you long time owners lol

it's just that stock calipers are not something I want to draw attention to.

I have never understood why people want to draw attention to our tiny calipers. Get a BBK if that's what you want or if you must, paint them silver or black.

Well I did it to look different at an inexpensive price. I did however consider painting them silver or black after seeing some pictures online, but after finishing up helping my buddy paint his '06 G35x calipers red I just had to do mine in red as well.

The calipers are small but still in my opinion they look really good and I'm happy with them.
