have you thought about just painting your calipers? and you could always stencil on the 'lexus' part. if all you are going for is the look then that would probalbly be your cheapest option

ya true, that could be a hassell, but how much would the paint chip off do you think? do you have steelies for winter? if so i coudln't image getting a lot of chips on the calipers, or maybe i just know nothing, not really sure. maybe try and find someone else who has painted their calipers

Yeah lots of people do it... but they also complain about the touchups... and you have to be careful not to damage the moving parts...

I only have my stock rims so I switch tires on the rims.

But then I'd have to change the rims for sure cuz chromed calipers will make them look dull.

get a big brake kit for your car. Stop tech or something... with some nice 4 or more piston calipers and some big rotors to fill that rim up. That would be visually impressive and will perform as good as it looks. Better start saving $$

Get the folia tec kit and paint the calipers for $50 it is truly amazing as the paint looks wet all teh time
a really good kit
everyone i have told loves it as the spray can stuff is crap and peels off and doesn;t leave a nice smooth finish but just adds colour to the existing rough surface

i have chrome caliper stickers with the "L" and the "lexus " script
i wasn;t really thinking about selling them as my club also sells them for about 25 a set of 4 i think

Yeah I was gonna order them from "your club".... just gotta wait for my credit card statement to give me my 4 numbers for pay pal...
I was looking at kits from Pacific mall to paint the calipers... prolly end up doing just that... might as well do it when I switch to my summer rims...
