looks good....question though, do the decals come arched like that? They look too arched to me...don't follow the curve of the caliper.
Look good non the less

Yes, they do come arched... You can carefully cut them apart and change the curve, but I really didn't want to mess with the spacing... once they stick, you can't pull them off without destroying the decal.

Regarding the question of when are the rest of the upgrades going to be installed... Whenever EuroRev finally ships my goods. I'm being nice with that comment at this time...

I was driving along on the freeway next to a stock Porsche 911 Carrera and looked over at the Porsche labeled brake calipers displayed clear as day behind the spinning wheel spokes... that was cool enough to convince me to paint the calipers red and put the BMW decal on it. Personally, I've enjoyed looking at the variety of painted brake calipers on this site and think anything looks better than oxidized wheels and rusty calipers.
