It Doesn't Stand Out, But It Gets The Job Done! (56k: Check Your Brake Fluid)

Pictures speak for themselves.



I was hoping the rotor were this color...


But the zinc coating wore off.






Partial black out grill I did 2 weeks ago.


Unfortunately my 18s didn't clear the BBK. It looked like it would but when I test fit it, it was very close. I don't want to run any spacers. Now I have to sell my 18s and look for something that clears the caliper.

AME FS01s.... would look bad ass! but they're not cheap

I've got some 20's that will clear ANY BBK possible... would even clear the rotora 8pot 15" BBK for the RL

i love BBK's... always make a car look sweet... the brembos... eh.. they're plain and small

what size is that? 328mm ? 330mm?

328mm.

AME FS01 would be nice but like you said not cheap.

20's are too big for me. 19's the biggest I would go.

It's nutthin compared to your VS-XX. It's just OEM Brembos with "StopTech" stamped on it.
