haha that pic makes the brushed aluminum look white but like I said its somewhat reflective and the cameras flash makes it look white, white would look good I think but I wanted to go with something abit darker.

I voted for brushed aluminum as well. I think it compliments the caliper color the best.

i voted for cherry blossom and my second choice was black so i guess i have bad taste in color combinations. the calipers look great. personally i'd try to get some Brembo stickers the car hs enough STi badges

I think Cherry Blossom would look great on a black background, they just dont do it on blue. I actaully have Brembo decals but wanted to do something different and plus I shaved most of the STi badges on my anyway. Thanks for the vote.

Thanks guys, I'll try and get some pics up this weekend. I have the calipers back on the car now and it looks like the paint is holding up very well so far.

Also an update on my milage, I am now past 90,000 miles.
