I'm doing a minor brake facelift on my car as we speak. Having the front and rear OEM calipers painted gloss black. The front rotors will be R1 Concepts (not yet installed, that will be step 2) and the rear rotors will be OEM until I need to replace them. After seeing a couple of threads here with people showing off new wheels (and rusty brakes) I got disgusted with myself because I have gorgeous 166's and these rusty-ass, old-looking calipers. Well NO MORE I SAY! My 166's are way too open and inviting to look through unlike some wheels (especially while you're moving). Without some BBK's it can be a huge eye sore if you do nothing to aesthetically improve the stock setup.

Tomorrow you guys will see some close-ups of the work done by the guys at iND / A&L Auto Body (http://www.ind-distribution.com).
