drilled slotted/gold caliper/black oem rim
Thought I'd share some of my recent changes.
rims are getting powder coated in few weeks so i thought I'd change them up until then.
I'll try to post VLED 6000K with purple tint HIDs soon.
Opinions are welcome.
enjoy

i personally would have gone w/ slotted only rotors, but it's visually unique.
i do have to admit that it's growing on me, though.

Looks outstanding - I love the gold calipers! What color do you plan on powdercoating the wheels?
