Very individualized.? I like your caliper job.? I wanted to do mine red, but after listen to some opinions here I on the site, I decided to leave them alone.? Looks great!? Enjoy it!
Also, due to your training and knowledge, please post more often.? We have a few resident experts on the site, but its always great to have another one!

[/quote]I had them painted at a nearby mechanic so I could supervise. The wheels have to removed and so do the calipers for a clean job. Not completely off the car but off the disc and dangling. I bought the G2 brake caliper paint and gave it to them.
The white BMW is a special caliper decal that hopefully is heat resistant. I just stuck them on tonight so we shall see.

First congrats on the ride!? Looks great.
I seem to remember that you may have posted an earlier thread about a spare interior trim assembly you had lying around the dealer.? My 530i will be delivered with wood trim, but I am looking to swap out with the aluminum that was optional in 2004 only.? Do you by ancy chance still have that?
Cheers,
OnOn
