    Dam those calipers look awesome, how did you go about this... DIY ir get them taken off, disasembled and sent for painting. Is the R as stencial or decal? Very interested in doing this to my calipers. What was the price if you don't mind me asking?

    Got the caliper covers painted at a paint shop then fitted the R decals on.

    Cost around $100.

    The snap into place as they replace the ****ty metal clip so no need to pull apart caliper.

    I may have some decals left so send me a PM if your interested.

    As in a covers to cover the existing calipers sort of like the fake brembo ones you see on ebay every now and then, if so where did you source them from? Defently interested in the decals will PM you.

    Was it essential to do the drop with the 19" wheels?
    I know Mk5 GTI look a bit like a roller skate on 19" with no drop, yet look fine on 17/18", but am finding that hard to visualise with my R36.

    Did you order the springs direct? Perfect daily driver height in the earlier pics IMO.
    It looks like they've dropped over time, unless that is just the light from the photos.
    Is that just an illusion?

    No not like them terrible.

    Tinto yes you have to lower the r36 as it looks terrible on 19's

    It's the light from the pics as height hasn't changed since the drop
