    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Yer welcome Dave ... It's what I do.

    I'd paint mine 'lello' but ya can't even see the calipers with my rims so it's so low on the priority list that ... well, ain't happenin due to my proclivity for procrastination.

    Calipers in white? Man, are you mad!? The whole idea of calipers is to get coated in alien scum! If it's any consolation, I am debating whether to powdercoat my cheapo Rota Grids on my STi white, with the already known outcome of ALWAYS dirty wheels with those big brakes. Decisions decisions....

    I am still debating the idea of a Brembo or Wilwood kit for the VX. Where there's a will, there's a way.... and where there's a way, there is an empty wallet.
