Nice. I painted mine gold (they honestly look brembo colored match gold), and I put the Infiniti decals (black) on it too. Call it rice or whatever you want, but I think it looks good. Doesn't stand out like a red would, but blends in and looks clean.

Why is your wheel under your car? Please tell me you aren't resting the car on it?

Got to be honest, not digging the black calipers. Makes the brakes hide behind the wheel, but the silver stickers will help. I am digging your tire selection though, love my Hankooks.

Silver is just my personal preference, I think it would look really good. Make sure to post pics when your done. Heck, I think it would even look good if you just left them all black with no stickers

^ will do. Silver will go more with the car, but white will stand out more. Its a tough choice.
