I think the brakes look better on your car then they did on mine! It's because you have smaller wheels so it fills up the gap much better. As for the codition they were in, I tried to keep them as nice as I could, especially since I usually had a wheel off at the shows to display the brakes/suspension. They really held up nice though. I thought the caliper color would fade but it really didn't. They still look sick!

 

I know. I was surprised to see that. very cool little feature though.

haha. thanks man.

When I first got them. I was surprised at how big they were. Looking at them on your car, they dont look as big. As you said, you have bigger wheels. They look enourmous with 17's. The black is very dull. Im assuming they were kinda glossy when they were new but it doesnt really bother me much. Ican allways get the professionally painted if I decide I want some shiny calipers.


BTW - What should I use to cover the bleeding screws? I dont want them to rust away and have to replace them...

 

The calipers do look like they're faded but they really didn't fade that much. They were a pretty light color when I got them brand new. I found that shooting them with tire shine every now and then helped make them look darker and glossier.

As far as the bleed screws, they didn't come with any type of covering or protection so I don't think you'd necessarily need to get anything for that. But if you wanted to, I'm sure you could find some rubber pieces to cover them. The stock brakes have rubber covers over their bleed screws so I bet you could get something similar to those for the wilwoods.

 

Now that you have those installed, you need to do a nice rolling shot like this!:

 

^^

for sure. I may actually get a shot like that this weekend. I think im gonna take Monday off and go cruising with a friend. Should have a shoot thread from it.
Thats a nice shot.
