Thanks I did those myself, took about half an hour including drying time and when I went to pick up the car just popped them back in.

Soon...lol maybe after I get my next check in a couple weeks, my dealer told me to go down there when I had about a spare hour to spend there, they said they wouldn't charge me much. And I always forget about the lil GM squares and I'm afraid I'd mess it up if I tried to take those off lol.

It depends on how bad they are damaged I think...but yes they do.

That would be suuuuch a bitch. But..maybe if I'm bored enough one of these days, I do like how they look the normal color.

Yeah but for $1200, ouch. I'd have to wait a looong time before I got those and I want them sooner rather than later. How much did you pay? And if I decide to go with something else what is a good alternative?

The rims look awesome. But from a distance it looks like it needs to be dropped. The wheel gap really stands out to me. But still looks awesome.

i paid 700, but i got mine used. just wait a little, and a set might pop up. i have seen them for 900 brand new, so if you are seeing 1200 that's too much.

there are no other systems i like for any less money. if you get lowering springs, it would look great, but honestly the stock handling is so good, i doubt you'd see any improvement from anything less than correctly tuned coilovers.

Looks great, makes me want to get mine done!

As for the calipers, paint the rears a flat black to match the brembo's and be done with it.
