Don't make fun of me or call me crazy..... but does anyone have lime green calipers???? I think lime green with black wheels would be so unique (if being stand-out-ish is your style)

Don't knock it till you see it cause i bet it would look pretty cool...

Thats what I asked in post #82
I have a GG IX and I think green would look great. Since no one seems to have them I'm going to try and find good local people who powder coat and try it out. I'm going to go with Takata green Brembos with green painted stock wheels.

oops, I have a hard time reading past the first page on threads haha. I'm gonna go with black rims and the green calipers.

Anyone have a general price range on this project?

I'm trying to find a good shop that does it. I'm going to try to contact them this weekend or first thing Monday. My Brembos are falling apart and look real ghetto with patches of red paint missing.

Not all Lambos have carbon brakes, & the brakes usually match the color scheme of the car. Ido sublet work for the local lambo dealer & I've never seen yellow on a red or orange car.

For those of you who used the high-temp decals, how are the holding up and where did you get them?
