porsches that have yellow calipers(instead of standard red) mean that they have the carbon ceramic brakes and if i remember right, a $10k option, just fyi lol if anything, i would say that painting them "yellow like a porsche" is rice especially since porsche's yellow calipers mean business


Making something "look" like another car without knowing what it means on that other car (Carbon Composite Brakes) is about as rice as you can get. It's like putting carbon fiber on an Accord with factory steel wheels sans hubcaps... or VTEC stickers on a non-Honda.

Perfect

Like the others have said, OEM- black or silver. Baller BBK- any color looks good
My opinion to, but where can you buy the 'S2000' sticker?

I have the same rims in gold (ce28) and like the black calipers very much, just need a sticker to...

I live in Belgium, so it have to be shipped...

Thank you for the information

I got my decals from Decal Girl and S2Kaccesories.com. Both of them don't sell them anymore. I think Honda contacted the site and told them to pull the items off the site due to copyright issues.

The factory finish looks like crap. If you have a nice set of wheels, It's not Rice" at all to paint them. It actually makes the wheels look better because you're not focusing on the crappy looking stock calipers.

Who gives a crap if it doesn't make the car any faster. Painting them doesn't make the car stop any shorter either, but IMO, makes it look a hell of alot nicer.
















Just G2 silver?
