    Very interested to see with the wheels back off, I have a soft spot for steelies and these look fucking slick.

          ok some of you had asked to see the brake caliper bracket.
          I tried to get the best photos I could.

          you can see what I had to cut off and smooth out.
          as you can see the brake pad is in there and it has no way of coming out.
          I drove the car around for about an hour and had no issues with it and nothing felt different at all.




          here you can see how close it is to the wheel.



          Now by no means am I a pro at taking photos.
          but I felt like going out and taking a few.
          Some are a little blurry but who cares.
          Im still waiting on a bunch of parts to show up.
          I just hope my IS lip and splitter come this week. :D
          on to the photos.

                    we added some silver pin stripe to it today and did some other little stuff.
                    nothing special. She wanted to go out and take a bunch of photos today since we installed the IS lip, stickers, stripes and the wing is now back on finally.
                    So I will post a few later.

                                I dont plan on going 110. I doubt the car will even see anyting above 70 mph.
                                Thats why we have a m50 swap e30 thats soon to be turbo.
                                I would like to know how it adds anything to the caliper when the caliper mounts to the back of the bracket and it is plenty strong enough.
                                That front piece adds no support to the caliper at all.
