Here's a thought for both of you.....
Pull the rear bumper cover and go to a local tint/vinyl shop. Have them wrap the 'CETA' area in whatever color vinyl you want. If you don't like the color, pull it off and try another color. It's not as permanent as paint, but still looks good.
I just spray bombed my CETA with a quality spray paint. It looks fine for what it is. When I get the car repainted in a few years, I will have the CETA professionally painted black and cleared.
Good luck!

Thanks everybody! I made a little progress tonight....
Here is how the brakes looked, a lot of silver!
I got all the calipers sprayed blue, this pic doesnt show the color that well, but its darker than it looks in this pic.
Sprayed my brackets black and touched the pads up with some fresh silver.
Done for the night.... I hope to have it put back together tomorrow and get some finished pics for you all.

Car looks awesome dude. Would look even meaner a little lower to the ground, but if you're around 600HP.. I think you're more worried about going in a straight line lol.
If you ever wanted to toy around with the CETA idea, you could plasti-dip the area and then paint the plasti dip blue. Don't like it, just peel it off. I don't think it NEEDS it though.

Thanks, and yes thats the reason the car isnt lowered, I would love to get a set of double adjustable coil overs but they dont exactly give them away, i will probaly put a set of 1'' drop springs in it soon because after over 4 years of owning this I cant stand to look at the 4x4 look anymore.

Got the brakes all done, and Im extremly happy with how they turned out!
here its done before the wheel is on.
here is the rear caliper, i ended up sanding some of the casting lines out of these also.
Front caliper, i love how this pic turned out!
The whole car
And while putting my nitrous bottle back in the car i noticed they are almost an exact match to my bottle also.
