Lol its painted Gun metal aka yes flint mica look alike. i have a thread about it here
http://www.clubsciontc.com/modules.p...ewtopic&t=6160
it cost me around 28 bucks to paint my rims in one night. Drove off in the morning (freeway back and forth) still no scratches and no dings. Purrrfect... and sexy color that matches my car =D. Im gonna get smoke eye lid/ turn signal / circle dot brake light / and red-out 3rd brake soon. Im gonna get rid all the light color on my car and make it a dark dark car.. lol. I'l prolly tint it but i like it like this.

I probably cant drop it until chrismast, because dealer asking me 550$ labor and 199$ for springs. Im gonna get the springs at mcgeorge or trdsparks and my mechanic gonna install it for 150$. I need to use my birthday money on clothes! its gettin cold.. lol.
it was crazy! I went to a local car shop and got it for $100! Came out great!

Vas_Finest: i bought the smoke eyelid.. i dont like the FM one because i dont think it will look right, but in your case your eye lid matches your car perfectly.
Poison: paint your calipers like everyone else! lol only cost 5 bucks, and a brush.. mines was a hell to do cause i used Q-TIPS! yes thats right! i couldnt find brushes so i used ear care products.. but it works! lol
