They look great. Are you going to leave the BBS caps or put BMW caps on the wheels?

If we have a few interested members to do caliper paint meet, we should
1) pick a day and place
2) confirm the max # attend (if we do it at Roy's)
3) buy G2 paint (we can try get a big order together w ebay seller)
4) think of other fun activities for that day

That is a good idea....my drive way would take about 4 cars....if I move my other cars away. If you do it early enough...it could dry and we can do a photoshoot. If someone else has a better place....enclosed even better....my driveway is in full sun and it
drys really fast...towards the last caliper...the paint was becoming THICK...but again we did 1 wheel at a time.
