you could probably order the gunmetal version and it might be a close match without having to paint.

yeah, it is close, but I am looking into the regular finish, just the silver.

Your NG is probably one of the nicest I have seen. Very clean.

I must admit that when reading the thread title, I was skeptical with the look, but upon seeing it, looks very good!

I like your calipers scheme. I thought I was the only one on this board with a "mazda" decal on my calipers. I have G2 Black, and white mazda decal.

hey thanks, These were the hyper silver before the paint. I liked them so much I almost didn't get them painted. the silver is very shinny. I really liked them both ways.
