Calipers and interior

I removed the carbon fiber from the doors and painted the wood grain silver... all that is left are the back side panels. I also finished the front calipers this weekend...







What do you think?

if that were the case then you would be arguing that our cars are too nice to tint, or to install performance upgrades on, or to lower or throw rims on.... all of it is for looks... everyone has different tastes. I personnaly think the red looks better than the nasty brake dust encrusted crap... but thats me.... another guy might like to have his car on bags.... to each his own... to me if you mod your car the way most on here do (headers, intake, body kits) than you are bart of the import tuner world and well, that is ricey... ;-)

This isnt meant to be a retaliation post or be argumentative in nature just figure i would say a little something.
