Thanks! I'm not going to try and fool anyone and just state for the record that they are reps LOL. 19x9.5 +35 all around, nearly identical to my current setup.
I'm also jealous of gold calipers, and like STownSaint, have never pusued it because of logistics. Red decal does not look good against gold, IMO. Black would have been better.
I received and installed my led light kit from diode dynamics. I am really happy with it. Here are a couple pictures of the difference between stock and led. I chose the 6000k cool white for the color. The color really makes it look much more sophisticated. It matches the infinity door sill light as well.
The main reason was for the trunk light. The stock trunk light is like putting a candle in a cave. The led makes it daylight in there. Of course I didn't take a picture of that.
I also ordered and installed the led fog lights XML2 (1420 lumens) in 6000k cool white. It attached a picture but I could not get a good comparison shot. The color is great, it matches the headlights. The brightness is amazing, looks like a second set of low headlights.
I also got GT-R clear front map lenses and a lighter clutch pedal assist spring from jsolo. Thanks jsolo, hoping that will help my wife drive it smoother. I didn't have an issue 95% of the time. It was embarrassing that 5% when I screwed up starting off in 1st gear, of course it always happened in a crowded parking lot.
Planning to do the pedal assist spring install today.
That looks wonderful! Where did you purchase the red Akebono decals?
Thank you! I got them off eBay. $7 shipped.

Would love to do the same for my car, but logistics prevent me from doing so
Thanks! Yes, I was going for the brembo look. That's why I went with the red sticker.
These are technically "Burnt Copper" but they look good to me.
I had to borrow a car from a friend and it took me three days to get this done so I totally understand.

I went with red for two reasons actually. I wanted the brembo look and my car is red. I can see your point about the black though.
The real test will be when I get my wheels. These brakes are going to really pop behind a set of these...

Going to look great regardless!
