New Caliper Color next week......

Very excited. Might be willing to sell my current ones instead of keeping them as a backup if someone wanted.

you're kidding. I was just thinking today about getting mine painted lambo green like yours. Honestly, I don't know what color you would pick that would top what you have right now. I think they look SICK. People (guys mostly) must be staring at them like crazy at stoplights.

No, no new brake kit...although that would be pretty sweet. The color should really pop and I think will definitely look sick. Not much more to mod to my car, so these little things are all I am left with -- however, if I didnt think it would look good, I wouldn't do it, regardless of the mod-virus I have.

Not sure if I am selling, but definitely open to it if you know someone who is interested. Chapparonne Auto Body is doing the paint (just like they did my current ones) so the quality will be as top notch as it was with my Lambo Green ones.

A color that would "pop" more than the Lambo green? I can only think of Lambo orange, purple, or a hot pink.

I think ACG has a post about this. I love the green, but always thought of the orange and want to see what it would be like.

Not sure if you have new calipers already, but let me know if you'd be interested in trading for OEM's + cash.
