Sweet pics...that's a whole lotta red!

Gotta any pics of the entire car with brakes/wheels back on? That red's gotta stick out on a black car.

Ok so i have the Baer Eradispeed front rotors and calipers on my car, a guy with a 98 ws6 wants to buy them and trade for his ls1 stuff. Do i need just the rotors/calipers or what all is needed for the swap?

You will need the spindle, rotors, calipers, pads and possible the brake lines. Some people are able to make stock LT1 and LS1 lines work. I just went with braided lines for a bit better feel and the bling factor.

Yes I powder-coated the spindles black.

The red does not stick out in a bad way. It sticks out just enough for some contrast. I have all red suspension and some red in the engine bay, so everything flows pretty well.

Here are a few quick pics I took right after I pulled it out of the garage. The shocks and springs have settled a bit since these, but you get the general idea:
