Painted the calipers. Black 8 in Houston.

Not the best shot of them but...... Just a quick shot I took on the way to the Houston RX7/RX8 club meet. Check out the Gulf Coast area to see more shots from the meet. Tracer

Very nice shot. The black brings out the red calipers so much (which I like) that it is hard to not see it.

Yeah it was a toss up between black and red. I did the rotors black...(the centers were all rusty) but went with the red calipers. Just ordered the clear corners so it should be looking real nice soon. T

Tracer that looks good. I also got to see them in person at the meeting and they look better than in the picture.
