Yeah I am going to stick with them and work the build around with some dark accents on the car, I can't afford the Pmu calipers but I think the lug nuts, pads, and gunmetal calipers along with the Pmu rotors eventually will look good. I'm going to do my tanabe strut bar and the stock engine room braces in that color too and maybe paint the engine cover or get the blue sti one to go with my intake.

Essex would be great, I hope with my mackin discount I can eventually afford the pmu kit but for my needs pads, rotors, and fluid should do the job.

Will do, i have a feeling i'll just be getting type NS pads, rotors, and maybe lines but i'll check my price list and see what i can do.

The wheels are really growing on me i've never had a dark finish or black wheels before and they take some time to get used to but they look really sexy in certain lighting. Rays center caps and valve stem caps are getting ordered tomorrow, anybody want to chip in for my christmas present?

Matt black looks good just by itself but once on the white car with black tyre on you really can't see the details from far.
Hyper Black looks really good under certain lighting and angel, in some wheeldude photos it looks amazing and I was like yes that's the one for me, then you saw some other photos in different lighting it turn really shinny like a mirror IMHO. I wish rota has the Matt Gunmetal or the color of your Rays. I really like that Matt finish. anyway your car still looks awesome! post more photos so we can see those new shoes, maybe I'll go down the path to plasti dip some smoke layers to make it look Matt.
