Do the calipers in Graphite grey. Its a neatral color with your evo, and it should look good!

Like the color on the wheels. Its different.

exactly why i did it! I usually see wheels gunmetal, silver, black, or something crazy like lime green or bright blue. I figured this idea would be cool because it a different yet classic color. its not crazy, but its... purple lol

plus the color is off the godfather of any import car!

Sick color! OT for a sec... where did you get your Advan stickers? I want to re paint my RG's too but I still want to retain the stickers or get new ones.

BTW- White or Silver on the calipers

I wasn't able to source new advan rgii stickers. I called advan and asked, and they basicly told me it was too much hastle for no profit :-(. I offered them $100 for the stupid things and they declined. Unless someone on here can make them, we're SOL
