Look nice! White will be tough to keep clean once that break dust hits it.

thanks man. And you do not have to mention it.

Black wheels, white calipers, major fail in terms of brake dust and keeping it semi-clean.

But it is one sickk combo imo.

i sugget you put opticoat on them, to keep them clean or at least make cleaning easier

TrevorM3 · 01-26-2016, 05:36 PM

I'll be doing lime green using G2 paint and similar stickers, all from eBay. I'm using this ESS M3 as my inspiration, doing calipers and parts of the engine cover only though...I think the fender vent is a bit too much.
