How do you like your calipers so far?
Can't say I can think of any great spots right now, but perhaps we can think of something early in the new year.

Love the calipers. The color is a lot like my carbon black car. The look of them changes depending on the lighting. In most lighting, it's pretty subtle, but when the sun hits them directly, they're bright and shiny.

Oh snaps, I never noticed that. I had that too when I took off my rear bumper for diffuser install. Its not really that hard, a few screws on each side and it pops off.

Re-aligned the rear bumper and added rear splitters. Also swapped out the tips for 4" slant cut.

Been eyeing those for a while. I'm just unsure how it would look on Carbon Black.

Same here. IMO. It would blend into much on a carbon black or black. I'm planning on using plastidip or paint and matching it to my gunmetal rims (That is when I stop procrastinating and get them powdercoated!!)

yeah I wasn't sure if to remove them completely or black them out? seems like over the years people thought removing them was another way of not accepting what your car really is which made no sense to me I always thought it looked cleaner without them

how much did you get the center caps for? I'm tempted to get the red ones for mine.
