Thanks for all the positive responses guys. I'm also sitting on the fence about adding carbon flash hash marks I have waiting to go on. I can install them myself and always trash them if its too much.

Did it on my C5. Would have done it on my GS
if I have got white, but went red. Looks awesome though

I'm glad I wasn't the only one.

Cool. Were they as difficult to keep clean as everyone prognosticates?

Mine was not bad at all. About the same as any other color to keep clean. IMO

That's my opinion too. I would think yellow calipers show about the same amount of dust. Looking forward to pulling the wheels and getting the ceramic coat on them when I get a chance.

G2 is what I used. Dries slick and a hard finish.

Yes you do. Let's set some time up to get that breakfast we talked about, or at least take a cruise. FYI, to everyone in the thread MRR is my go to source for perfect alignment and suspension needs here in Central FL.
