Looks good. What did you use for the calipers?

thx for the comments guys.
i used yellow engine paint that i got at autozone, it was like 5 bux. temp rating was wayy over what the calipers will ever get.
did all 4 calipers, about 4-5 coats each, and still have paint left over. it goes on really nice, and came out pretty glossy.

I actually thought the red pinstripe looked pretty hot, went well with the tail lights and calipers and all..

Curious if someone could photoshop a yellow pinstripe on your ride to see what it'd look like.

Yeah, much better. But I think the wheels would match your ext. color best in silver.

Try to put on some yellow stripes around the wheels...like the ones you had in red...I think it would look awesome!

I liked the red stripe and red caliper but I also like that. Nothing like changing the look of your car twice a year just to get a renewed feeling of well new...
