To me, it looks like he painted the calipers and then painted the brembo name/logo on there (Please correct me if I am wrong because I am most of the time haha!)

I love it! I think clean looking cars are the way to go. I like the graphic on the bottom part of the door and fender, I wanted to do that with my car, but could not think of any good ideas.

I like your choice in wheels.

I thought they looked pretty good on my ride but damn do they look nice on a white Koup. Are you on 225/40R18 rubber?

Cool, they look great just like I thought they would. You said you were thinking about getting the Eibach springs as well, are those on right now? I can't really tell.

Where did you get the side decal, or did it come with it?

No, I didn't get the eibach springs I got king springs in oz but don't like how they sit so they are going to fix my ride height on Wednesday! As for the side decal I actually got it from the states, cannot remember the name of the store but they are on eBay! $60 I think, I added the red pinstripe to side decal.

Nice wheels!!! ... I'm starting to see a few more Koups around my area in Sydney ... still not what I'd call "a lot" ... but either way, good to see them around. ;-)
