Very similar Simon, Although that green is a candy, which I can do also. :wink:

I was tempted to do mine green but I wont go with what Im doing. Ive opted for a darker red with black decals on mine.

We should just polish everything Ben...... :mrgreen:

Have you got a picture of the lime green you have in mind, Mark?

I might, probably, most likely, definitely be keen to get this project rolling very soon :)

Something was intriguing me about the Prova edition BRZ... :?

Then I noticed they color-coded the inner barrel of the sparkle black RSM9's to match the candy tangerine 6/4 pot calipers... :shock:

"to the next level of dabauchery!" :wink:

Black and dark wheels...... you can pretty much go any color brakes and they wont look wrong.

Black brakes or dark ones will just blend in, unless thats what you want.

like this? The actual wagon itself is nuts!

I have been toying with the thought of a "Cusco" blue once I get all my cusco goodies :)

And awesome work Mark on those polished ones, amazing quality of work

Rears aren't that dear - just save up for a bit longer and do them all in one hit. A full set of fronts and rears should cost no more than $1K from most wreckers or eBay.
I was going to procrastinate, but I put it off...
