i am not going to spend $300 on RCA's...thats investing a lot of money.. I would rather get a real BBK.
LS Calipers- $200-$300
Goodridge SS lines- $100
RCA;'s- $300-$400???
EBC Drilled/Slotted rotors- $200-$300?
Custom Paint - $200???
Thats like a $1000 right there. WTF? I'd spend an extra $1000 for a 6pot!!!

BTW your pricing for everything in that list is WAY to high and you forgot brake pads. i got my whole kit for lot less than your quoting (OEM calipers,OEM rotors, and OEM pads for bout $275 shipped) BTW RCA's have other uses than just a brake upgrade.
