Looks good. Don't paint anything blue and don't go overboard on LEDS. Black grill will go nicely.

I know right. Because the vendors on here all have ebay sites and it wouldnt be good to get their things.


@op- Car is looking good. For the brakes i would recommend taking them down to the metal and removing all the rust. If you dont have brembos use a wire brush and knock off all the extra crap. Make sure you tape them off if your leaving them on the car overspray could get inside and potentially wreck havoc later on. Painting your calipers isnt rice as long as its not bright yellow or green you get the drift. A nice red will look good on there too.

You can also buy the spray tint at a local hobby shop. Its the same thing they use to tint windows on diecast models and such. The more you coat the deeper the color. Just take your time.

@project: i was thinking about painting the calipers a dark red, like blood kinda i guess. and if the local hobby shop doesn't have the spray tint i guess i'll just have to order some off amazon or ebay.

@richard: it's an 06, auto.

@flyingmustache: Ebay actually has SOME good stuff.. i bought my clear corners from a company on there, and they fit like oem and they look good. You just have to make sure you know what you are buying.

@chrcarlo: Sorry for your loss. haha :P

Red belongs on BBK's IMO, not on our puny stock brakes.
