Calipers look sweet.

I wish BBKs weren't so much $$$
I'd like to run either red or IP calipers, but there's not a CHANCE I'll paint the stock ones.

why is PC for ballers? I've powder coated boatloads of stuff, nothing baller about it... and painting my calipers cost more than PC would have (still not baller though)...

BTW, if you are buying used calipers and PCing them and calling that baller - I think you have the definition wrong.

Yeah I twiddle my thumbs waiting to pull peoples comments apart... mm-hmm

Don't get butt-hurt just because someone tells you powder coat is not baller... if there was some secret message that you feel should make replies off limits; get over it.
