Now that I went through some of your pics, I realized I've seen your brakes in person prior to you having them installed, so it's your car.

I swear I know that neighborhood, think my friend lives right down the street from you.

Car is coming along nicely, I would have done yellow brembo's on the blue but orange isn't too bad either.

Dash went in w/o issue. I didn't take any pics cuz I don't know how to take good ones, and this is such a subtle change that I wouldn't be able to capture the change well.

I have an Akra slip-on

Yeah I got them repainted. The yellow/blue combo is definitely a safe, proven color combo....boring? kinda, which is why I went orange initially. The orange didn't come out in as deep of an orange as I had hoped and it never grew on me. Really wanted a color other than yellow but couldn't come up with one that flows well with blue. Really wanted to do a lambo pearl white but Darwin talked me out of it due to how often I'd have to clean them.

I can't see how yellow is any easier to keep clean than white.

Hey what does Darwin charge to paint 4 calipers?

Love the yellow! Orange would work on white cars but not one blue.

Maybe one of these days I'll see you around....

Never said I didn't like the orange calipers. But I never got to the point of saying WOW. I wish my orange came out closer to a darker, burnt orange/bronzy sort of orange.

Man....I keep coming back to your thread over and over again! DAMN YOU!!!! I will be taking SOME of your design as it is just truly well done....LM-Rs for starters (I hope it will be cool to PM you to work on details on specs, etc although you listed them several times here I want to go a little less aggressive but flush never the less). I am on the list for the MFR catless mid-pipe and picking up the Akro exhaust to match it, contacted Challenge for the E90 M3 diffuser and picking up an Arkym Competition front lip. If ModeCarbon ends up making an E90 M3 side skirt I'll get those too, dial in the suspension somehow, get rid of the orange reflectors, and BBK will also be selected.

Thanks again for such a great thread and hope you keep updating it!

If you EVER want to get rid of your LM-Rs please let me know!
