I am the anti-bling (matte black brembos here)
#76
Just an update on the paint everyone. Still looks like the day I finished. I have noticed some little white marks on the calipers from time to time. When I look at them close I realize it's just the left over debris of rocks that have flown up and hit the rotors. The debris wipes right off with my finger tip. This VHT Ceramic paint really does hold it's own up against the elements. Even with just the 3 coats of it I used.

They are name designed to be able to come apart and be put back together.
The flat black looks good if you wanna be sleeperish.

Ahhh, thank you for the clarification, thats all I was looking for.
