Stupid question but I’ll ask anyway, does painting the calipers or using caliper covers void the warranty?

Looks awesome FTBoomer. That kind of modification is just beyond my imagination, but the results speak for themselves. Well done!

Chrome delete looks great! Other than the window trim, what else gets blacked out?

Not sure what you’re asking? Yes, only blacked out the chrome around the windows.

There is chrome under the side mirrors and smoked chrome around the grill and the trunk deck. I didn’t know if any of those parts were also ‘deleted’.

The dark chrome around the grill looks terrific imo. Never ever would I want that deleted.

Agreed! The smoked chrome looks great. I could however do without the chrome in the side mirrors.

I too agree. If the chrome around the windows were the smoked chrome, i would have left it alone but the bright silver needed to go.

Yes, These are the ones off of eBay. The top very nice almost metal and the arm controls are a nice ABS plastic and look better than the pix show. All pieces came with 3M tape already on all pieces and ready to go.
