WoW Tim looks great! I already order mine my AM 2 days ago. What kind of rotors do you have on there? and what paint did you use for your calipers?

Brembo Cross-drilled & slotted, Zinc coated with EBC Red pads....Paint is Dupli-Color Caliper Paint (Once it dries it looks great - I have 3 coats of paint!)

I wish they made comp orange caliper paint. I couldn't find none so I picked up Duplicolor in black for mine. I was going to go with the G2 kit, but I didn't wanna pay that much for some caliper paint lol. Did you guys get the brush on kit or the can? I went with the brush on kit.

+1 with the brush...Could have gone to a paint shop & had them make you a pint size of your Comp. Orange to paint the calipers!
