Caliper's look great! Thinking of having mine redone in Candy Apple Red to match the rest of my new suspension parts. Just curious, but did you pull the calipers apart yourself and then rebuild them afterwards?
Took them apart cleaned and re-did them, then re-assembled. Had the rotors done as well.
You're going to want to paint about 3/8 inch onto the surface of the rotor as well or you'll get a ring of rust where the brake pad doesn't hit the rotor.
I made the same mistake.
Relatively easy fix even if you have already installed them. I just sanded off the rust and applied some caliper paint with a small brush.
I recently installed Bilstein B16 coilovers and the car as it is much smoother and responsive on cornering.
From the side view. Nice drop Coils in the front.
Interesting... the Bilstein rep I spoke with advised me not to go with the PSS10 on my sedan as he could not guarantee the fit/function. Glad they worked for you, wish I had the gusto to go against his advice and wing it!

Interesting. Good to know. I'll have to keep that in mind and plan for that next time I am working on the sedan. Thanks for the heads up.
Is the link you have in this post the kit you have? The description on Amazon shows it's for FRS/BRZ and from searching through the forum and on DD website they don't offer a sedan kit. If you have the P/N I'd appreciate it. Thank you.
Now that's an awesome B-day gift! Now how 'bout your mortgage??
I think the mortgage will be paid off in four years, but don't hold me to that, because the wife is the household accountant, and I can't recall when we last refinanced.
All I know for sure is that my youngest daughter will be going into college right around the time I'll be looking for that used Jag. That's going to be awkward, LOL.
