Re: painting brake parts, what color? (peichie)
thanks for the replies i think i will go with either flat or gloss black. i ordered 4 sets of lenses from redlinezone.com a month ago and they sent 2 accord lenses and wont answer emails. i will most likely have to take them as a loss and buy lenses again.

Red rotor hats are booty, red calipers are ok, depending on the overall look of the car.
