They look great! I want to do mine so bad, but can't find the time to do it. My G is Black Osidian and I think I want to go with a dark red.

And definitely get the decals.

How much did it cost you roughly? and hows the durability on these because i hear powered coating is better than paint as far as caliper goes

A local sign shop can cut them for you. I'm not sure how they would hold up with just being a sticker though. I applied mine to the base coat, and then cleared over the decal.

Definitely get the Akebono put on though. Looks great IMO.
