Need some input / painted brakes..

My boy just did some hydro graphics on my calipers and wondering if its to much or I should do something else.. Trying to be different.. What you guys think? My engine cover and intakes are the same color.

if your going to put your car in shows the detail would be worth it, if your just using it for street car looks cool, i wouldnt waste all the extra time with the design / detail of the graphics and just paint it a solid color. But then again it is a friend and it looks sick, so if hes willing to do the work for free me personally I would do it because i like knowing its there and no1 else has that but if i walked by and saw that design on it i would take a quick glance and look at the black design part as like tar melted to it and u didnt bother to clean it.

I personally wouldn't put that much time and detail into a brake caliper, I do like the design though.

I like it, this is what customization is all about! Who really cares if everyone else likes it or not!! I think they're sweet!

I think those came out great! Now the big question is what wheels are those going to sit behind?

Dayummm.. That's a good question, looking at some avant garde machine finished concave look, or stance 5ive.. Can't never go wrong with some concaves.. So far I have some dolphin grey Lorenzo wheels on. Not a bad look I think..
