Blue painted calipers on Titanium and MS Wing install

Just got my car back from my bodyshop, they fitted the MS Replica wing (carsoption.com) and I asked if he could paint my calipers (to save me the time) Managed to match the blue to the RB decal. Very happy with the result.
Got my MS wing mirrors to be installed this week to finish the kit off.

Very nice job. I think you are the first to do blue calipers on an 8 OTHER than a Winning Blue (that I have seen anyways). I like those rims. They are 18's right?

Yeah, don't think I've seen anyone else with the grey/blue combo.

Rims are 18 yeah, with 245x40 Bridegstone SO3's

That looks good - I was going to paint mine black, and I even already have the kit, but blue looks good on the Tit Gray.

Damn, I was skeptical about blue brakes on Ti Grey, but that looks really good. I love the wheels as well. Sweet car!

Thanks Guys, was a bit skeptical at first about mixing and matching kits but I am more than happy with the end result. If only I could find a rear bumper I like...
