I inherited them and I never planned on painting them again.

Everyone does Red and Yellow, I wasn't going to do that from the get go. It stands out enough in person, that is enough for me at the moment.

Yeah there is a reason why everyone does red and yellow. But your car man so as long as you're happy.

Pictures are only about half the representation of how you would see it in person. I might need to refinish something eventually so maybe I would repaint the calipers. But I promised the original owners I won't so I won't.

I really like how you painted the cs lip to blend, looks so much better and less 'added on'
