Oh, hell, I'll play again. Nothing really new that effects the look at all except suspension and brakes... but I'm happy with my Tokico blues, new painted brake calipers, and Brembo rotors. Oh, and DOT4 fluid and a new master cylinder. Since I just got my car back from the shop after months, though, it's time to post one or two new pics
Pre-wing:


Winged


Painted brake calipers, new Brembo rotors. I love how I accidentally ended up basically matching the colors of the Enkei infinity logo, the shocks, and the brake calipers. I didn't even have that in mind when I chose what color to paint the calipers.


aaaaand the car


I need some of RRTEC's clear side markers and turn signals.... and maybe a Corksport front lip, and I'll be done with the car cosmetically.

painting tubro 2 calipers is fine seeing as with a nice set of rotors and pads they are good for everything short of heavy track use.

I've painted mine as well. Who hasn't? It's a cheap easy way to freshen up your wheel area. Better than corroded ugly calipers.
