Here are a couple pics of my latest minor mod. Put on powder coated calipers on from TPS Motorsports ( TPSMotorsports.com ) Mike delivered a great product for a fair price.

Powder coating has just a little more shine/gloss to it.

Looks good.

They do look good. Put some drilled and slotted rotors on. You won't regret it.

Looks great! And you got to put them on the dining room table! I get yelled at for that and no more taking new mods to bed at night. Oh well.

I agree... was a late thought... figured I would do it after the first of the year... wanted to get the cores back to Mike without delay...
