Hate the wheels. I wonder if you clicked 2 of them together you could go home to Kansas?;)
I've never seen that kind of set up before. Is that brake set up effective?

I think one of the calipers would be pretty useless in real life situation.

you know, I kinda see this trend coming.. for some reason one day i was thinking, whats the one thing tuners show goers etc are missing/might want, clear body panels... think about it, if you have a lets say nice turbo set up, polished and all woudlnt it be cool if you could actually see it while going down the road? <please work with me, talking show car type of deal... :D > how about if you polished all your suspension parts and on top of that get a nice set of coilovers, ss brake lines and such and then get clear fenders, dunno, just throwing ideas here..

I've seen clear hoods before. For a show car though, nice paint is key. Clear body panels will take away from that.
I have to admit, it looks pretty impressive.
A bit of an overkill though in normal driving.
"Ya, I got TT Supra brakes on my Celica."
"So? I've got Brembo brakes on mine."
"Ya, well... I've got twin Brembos!"
"Well I've got triple!!!"
... see where I'm going with this?:banghead:

lol i was actually thinking about this today whilst I was al walmart
I thought: when I become an automotive engineer, Im going to make cars with 2 calipers on every wheel. But after thinking about it for a while, I thought it would'nt be possible....or atleast plausible
