I like the Red GS fender marks! I think I'm going to put them on my black car!
Sorry I should have said, I like your black GS marks, I think I'll put red ones on my black car.

What did you use for mounting the calipers to the knuckle?
Would a 17" wheel like a zr1 style fit? Or do you have to go to 18" wheels?
Thanks in advance!
