I'm glad I got in when I did, I can't believe how much they're asking for these now. Even the group buy price is more than I would spend for this right now.

That actually looks pretty neat. I didn't think it would, but after the wheels are on, they are subtle enough to not stick out and have a nicer look than just the rusty stock calipers.

You might be waiting a while, doesn't it take a while to go thru customs?

hard to say. looks like you ordered yours 3 days after I ordered mine. dealers may be getting small orders trickling in, and sending them out on a first ordered , first served basis.

i ordered from Tim on July 5th as well. I spoke to him early this week and he said the ETA on the next batch from Honda is Aug 7th, so we'll probably get tracking numbers sometime after that.

Well, I put mine on today. I really hope the RTV holds em on

I used the high heat, which is red. I can definitely see the advantages to using black RTV. Fortunately, I painted my calipers as well, so I just shot some paint over the RTV once it dried.

This is such a nice look, and for a $24 total mod, I guess I can't go wrong.

yea, should get them on thursday, i paid for 2 day FedEx shipping.

i originally placed the order on July 5th, it'll be almost a month by the time i get it, but worth the wait for the price i paid considering i bought 4 cheaper than the price people are paying for 2 now.

don't forget to factor the cost of the RTV and paint in. unless you already have it and don't have to buy it.

Since my TL is my daily, I won't be installing them until Friday night, so they have the night and all day Saturday for the RTV to cure. I'll be taking pics at our local meet on Sunday.

no, it has white lettering only. The blue is the protective film that you remove after installing.
