The standard blue brakes look crappy with LSB so...

I had them powder coated in yellow. RAL1023 "Traffic Yellow" to be exact. Also used "Brembo" decals instead of the "M" decal. I think it looks better and, after all, they are manufactured by Brembo. While I had the brakes off I added the Challenge SS brake lines. The pads are Porterfield R4S. Great pads.

I should have included a shout out to ArmorTech Coatings that did the coating work. Great guys and the work was flawlessly.

Agreed. That's why you gotta opt for the CCB's.

Yellow does work well with LSB. Is that a 6MT or DCT?

It's a manual. Seriously considered CCBs, but too many people commented on noise so I passed. Spent the money saved on some additional Interior leather. Added leather (Amaro Brown) on the console sides and seat backs.

Beautiful! I've always wanted to do something like this but could never figure out if I should just invest that money into a BBK. Decisions decision. The blue and yellow combo looks fantastic together. Well done.

Yellow looks okay but yea no to the brembo decals. I personally prefer the blue over the yellow for the brakes, or maybe even red. If it was a black car, I would have preferred the yellow maybe.
