I guess you better start sanding.. haha I'm kidding.
It doesn't matter which way you stick the decal, it won't change the way your brakes function. Its more just a matter a preference i guess.

Yeah I like the caliper sticker goes on that way, so when people look at them, they don't think it upside down, I don't like the way sticker look upside down, just only lexus logo on caliper are upside down

Dress up your current set-with BBK and wait for headlights to drop in price.

Keep them! The GT30 is nicer than the CV3 imo

I think the LED headlights look really good on black during the daytime. I'd go with the headlights.
