Yellow on black.... *drool* Good choice, my 2nd fav. color... I'm doing yellow on my S4 as well, lime green being my first but only looks sick on a dark colored car IMO, yellow looks awesome on most colors

Painting it on the car isn't an issue, you just gotta make sure it's masked off properly. I painted mine on the car, but used automotive paint and clear, never had any chipping...

Really great job Omar! The color combo really sets it off and just looks right together.

Congrats on DIY without all the removal and reinstall problems.

Yellow and red look awesome too, thought about that combo too.
Dope work as always 180,
and it really is not hard it's just not a 2 hour job expect a couple hours on each one at least.
Cars been sitting for a few days now just letting the paint cure before I heat those brakes up.
Thanks again peeps for all the feed back.
