now now...no need to take it to that level, PTL merely shared his opinion and did so I think respectfully

as the OP said..."to each his own"
im not talking about one person in general. a lot of people will rag on him for doing that to stock calipers but the bottom line is do they look better? yes. Are they bigger and performance oriented? no.

I wasnt trying to start problems with ptl, again.

Anyways.....great looking AW. So what other plans do you have for it?

Car looks great.....

Now, I am not a fan of the front lip.....never have liked it as an "add-over" type mod. But who cares what I think?

I like the calipers, but I wish people would stop painting the ENTIRE caliper along with the exposed brake pads and other parts that are not the actual caliper. I like the black contrast of the other parts showing through. But your hubs sure look a lot better.

Overall, the car sure has been transformed, and the front mesh grills look great...along with the rims.
