Bat\'s Big Brake Upgrade (PICS)!

Finally got my BB upgrade, and I must say that I am very please with the results:nana Mad props to Dave(Racecars) for the kit and quality install job :2tu: JohnB at Partsrack for the slotted dimpled rotors and EBC green pads :2tu: ,

After much debate, I decided to go with Red Calipers instead of Blue. After seeing them in person, I'm glad I did. They really dont clash with my Blue stripes and they tie in nicely with my Taillights :) . Now, on with the pics:

Bat,

That looks great! Last week we discussed about the color... and in my opinion blue would look better.
But after seeing this, I think you made the best choice!

Red looks very good! And doesn't clash with the striping.

@FD,
ViperNL? Something for your Viper?

Killer upgrade but IMO the red calipers and blue stripes leave something to be desired. IMO, it's time to lose the stripes all together.

Kooks killer from a side view though.

What's the minimum size wheel you could use with those brakes?

Dave was going to test them with stock 18's. Not sure if he's done that yet. I'm running 19X10 up front and 20X13 in the rear.
