I saw the thread on painting the calipers. I might do that, however, if I do, I''ll probably go silver, black or maybe even yellow.

Car looks superb. The appearance package really makes the car stand out. Thanks for the excellent pictures.
Just a note on painting the calipers: I'm not sure I would recommend using regular Testors paint for that job, it will probably not withstand the heat generated by the brakes. You should look into a purpose made product, like the high temp plastic coverings available, or just buy some high temperature engine block paint.
