I like the BSM. I have seen Silver TA's with it removed and I'm not a fan of it.

Sorry for the redundancy.

The calipers were pretty easy to polish. It took about an hour to polish each caliper. I used a hand drill and a 3" pad to do it. I used multiple grits to get the desired look.

I would like the molding removed as well...but even more, you need to get all the water spots off the wheels and dry fully or polish. Which ever works.

You could have put " [img] insertphoto URL here [/img] " around those links and would be a lot easier for us to see them, rather than clicking every one.

Show me a couple good looking Silver TA's and I'll reconsider it. I washed the car not 5 minutes before I took the pics. I wanted to get some pics before it got dark.

Good looking car, did you just do the fronts of the calipers or the whole deal?

I did mine while back, but need to finish the whole caliper, and want to smooth the braket too..

I did the front and top side of the caliper. I got the new hood on today, so I'll have some pics tomorrow of the entire car.
