Default Painted My Calipers Part II

Thanks again to "bapd77" for the inspiration and the leads to the paint and decals. I never liked the red calipers either. So after looking at his fine job I decided to give it a try. If I had it to do over I might do it differently but overall I'm pretty happy.

Looks good and continues the white-out theme you have with the painted vents. If ya can, snap a pic of the car showing both hood and side vents in the same photo. I contemplated painting the vents and ordering a white coupe before I decided to go with LBR. I'm interested to see what my idea in white would have looked like. There aren't too many painted vent pics online of the ZO6.

Did not like the body color vents, swapped out to black

Looks cool! With the LBR, I decided The black vents contrasted in a way I liked. However, I came real close to doing a white coupe with painted vents. Really happy with what I selected. LBR is a really cool color that has a real presence about it.
