^^ That's nice. Are they 19" wheels? Anymore pictures?
Guys, please post some more pictures as you come along...
I'm thinking of buying a set of this Akebono and PC them to put on my 06 IP G35. I like how this Akebono calipers look along with 14/13 disk setup.

hes on 20"ers and the brakes are 14 front and 13.8 in back...
I considered doing mine red with black lettering when I first got the car and Mike told me I'd be the first one but I chickened out. 
With the wheels I have now, I'm considering doing them black with silver lettering (basically reverse of how they are now), much like the 370Z ones mikeyboy posted. How do you think it will look? I'm not a rebadger so no Datsun or Nissan logos on my Infiniti.
Maybe the Akebono logo?

^ Not sure black will standout anymore than silver. I have not priced PC'ing the calipers yet, but if I do them I want then to stand out. I am leaning toward red which I think will go well with BO. I have red calipers on dark charcoal GTI and really like the look.
damn you bb! lol guess people already have the idea. mikes already setting up the stencil for the akebono logo for me when i go up in 2 weeks.
ill be doing blue calipers with black writing. for your car, id say go red with silver writing to match your tails unless they're tinted.

So you might be first to have it, but not first to come up with the idea.

well im a year late to the car so i would have thought someone would have done it by now. or at least had the idea. i got the idea a few weeks ago when mike said he'd do my brakes. i instantly thought of changing the "infiniti" lol.
