Drop it and paint the calipers and drums black...you have small brakes and painting them will draw more attention to the small brakes...I say repaint the calipers and drums black to give it a newer look but it wont take away attention from the wheels.

And are those double wipers I see???? uhh.gif

Paint the brakes black. Do NOT paint the drum any other color than black because it is stupid to show of your drums.

hey thanks for the chops DJ, that second one looks tight!

well, after getting many comments from friends about how i greatly need to lower it, i'm gonna start looking into it. in order to pull it off, however, i'll need to role my rear fender to get rid of the sharp lip on it... i'll keep y'all updated on what i decide. oh, and i think i'll just paint my brakes black icon_cool.gif
