I personally like them how they currently are. I think if you color match them you may lose some of the pop.

Color matching is a good idea.....problem is that the color blue has to match perfectly!

Good Luck!

Lol I like those brakes Taywan, don't see many rotoras in the blue. My opinion would be to either color match them with your car or go for a brighter blue to make them pop. heres mine

Installed my Akebono BBK last week. Very impressed with improved braking power!

Does anyone know if there are measurements already out there (whether in a thread or on another site) for the Akebono BBk? Need them because im switching to 18's from 19's and i want to make sure i order my wheels in proper offsets/disk so they will clear. I would do this myself by my car is not with me. Thanks for any help!

CZP has a template for both the front and rear calipers that might help you.

How do you like the Wilwood brakes? Is the fitment good and have you put them through their paces yet? They look sweet!

I think the OEM Brembos look great with the Millennium Jade.
