That's my old car, it was originally metallic grey but the body work needed some repairs and a respray so went for the matte black. Iv seen it around town a few times since selling it 3 years ago.

Do any of you know what BBK are those? They look a like a set of OEM Brembo caliper form a STI or Nissan 350Z.

Quoting citymunky:
I'm going with the two tone black.

Body cladding bumpers gloss black, upper half satin black, with no chrome strip. Amber corners and amber turns lights. 92 tails. If I don't like the 92's ill lighty smoke the 91's and put them back on. The real question I can't myself is what color to paint my 3000GT brakes. Red is so overdone, and petty much and any other color is Rice /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif



Do the calipers black and just make the Mitsubishi on the calipers red. Other than that maybe gold or blue. Oh and make sure to post up pics of your paint job once it is done, I honestly thought about doing the exact same thing but in reverse with the bumpers and cladding matte and the metal in gloss.

I done that before with my G35 Brembo's, It looks cool once somebody notices it. However I don't want red anything on the Galant I was looking for new to do.
