New pics with Brent Franker vinyl and new wheels!!

Here are some new pics of my car with 18x9.5 ZO6 wheels with Falken 275/35 all around. Also, I added cross drilled rotors and painted the calipers red with silver CAMARO calipers overlays made by Brent. Pics were taken in my garage at almost 10 pm so they are kind dark. After I get the brakes bled and the car cleaned I'll take some more and post them.

They are polished and the rotors are powerstops, or powerslots, I'd have to go look at the box.

Thanks for all the compliments. The rotors are only gold because I hadn't driven on them yet. They look zinc coated now. The wheels are AFS polished 18x9.5 ZO6, I scored them brand new on ebay. Got the brakes all bled today and the rear wheels on, I'll post up some better pics this weekend when I get the car cleaned up and it's daylight out.

Looks good.. But uhh.......



Are you expecting that vinyl to stay on those calipers? I could see them peeling after a few stops from 120.

There are some guys out there who have had these on for a year now and so far, so good I thought at first too that the vinyl wouldn't hold up but have heard back from a few who did this a LONG time ago (and didn't clear coat over it either) and they say it still looks good.

Well Brent.

I've bought your vinyl before and I'm not shocked at the quality. I just didn't think some very high temperature objects and vinyl/adhesive would mix. I might have to get those for my next F-Body.
