[QUOTE="det_riot, post: 1037616, member: 11417"] Been gone for a while and the car's been down basically all summer. Classes+no job = lack of motivation for car things. Anyways, my brakes were taking a dump so I knew the repair was coming. oops [img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8425/7763252904_1ed269c1ff_b.jpg[/img] Decided while my car was going to be down anyways that I'd pick up some cobra calipers and upgrade the fronts while I redo the rears. At this point it was just a matter of if I was going to paint them, powdercoat them or leave them as is. [img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8158/7696866472_9ed895cf02_b.jpg[/img] Welp the ones i picked up were painted yellow and having a teal car, that obviously wasn't going to flow. I had seen color matched calipers before and was always slightly hesitant on how good it would look with teal. My only inspiration was this picture I found floating around online. [img]http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p100/carenti88/TCC%20Pics/DSC01532.jpg[/img] Armed with that and a desire to step outside of the box, I hit up my buddy who does the powdercoating for TeamZ. Shane and Justin at Fabcoat Performance Coatings pushed a color on me due to their recent love for candy coats. Man I can't believe that I ever doubted them. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
