Have you looked into painting or ceramic coating your calipers in copper?

I've thought about that color but G2 doesn't make it as a sandard color and I can't quite justify the added expense to have them custom make it.

Great looking car!

I'm trying to determine what to do about the calipers, if I do them in copper they won't stand out and wont' have any contrast at all so I've been on the fence for a while now about what to do about them.

LOL Sorry man. I've done some more suspension stuff, but cosmetically it's not changed much. I've got some things in the works though so hopefully soon. Probably going back to stock bumper and adding a hood this spring and exterior will pretty much be done aside from a few smaller things.

Then my focus is saving for boost.

Let's not forget the fact, however, that they will be M/F copper calipers! :cool:
