These Calipers look really good. Did you get a stencil for these? If so, where did you get them at?

They are much better with AP or stoptech lettering. You can also buy them prelettered, thats the best way.

Also "ENDLESS" is easy to print on the caliper using women's eyeliner pencil. I know it sounds 'iffy' but if you coat the caliper in Crest toothpaste afterwards the pencil marks will stay on, even at high temps.

Blue Calipers!?!?! I just painted mine, and I'm waiting on the 350z stickers... Also, I just got a billet grill, and I will be posting pictures as soon as I get the stickers!

Enkei makes great quality wheels but that model was never meant to be put on a Z. The only widths and offsets they have for your bolt pattern will look very sunken in...more so than stock:

18x7.5+45
18x8+40

I almost didn't post this because it seems like you didn't bother to take the advice the first time or even be appreciative of some very helpful member's trying to point you in the right direction. Again...do some more reading on this forum before you just go buying random stuff.
