Mike... did you go with the blue or amber color dash? Man that dakota digital dash is sooo easy to install. I love mine! it is very much worth the money.

Are you planning on painting the calipers and rotors?

Just an Idea.... I painted my rotors with a high heat black and after driving it a few times the brake pads will wear the paint off and make the drilled and slotted areas look really nice and clean. Not the greatest pictures but you get the idea.

**67cheby** · 08-09-2012, 10:33 AM

i went with the blue ! great news on the install , i cant wait ! My calipers are powder coated silver and rotors are nickel plated so i think i will just leave them like they are , that does look cool on yours though !

funkytechmonkey · 08-09-2012, 10:39 AM

I really wish I were closer to you... I would love to help you with this. Those were the fun days... installing all the new stuff. Maybe I should sell mine and start over lol

**67cheby** · 08-09-2012, 11:39 AM

wouldnt it be cheaper just to come help me ?? LOL

VA72C10 · 08-09-2012, 12:28 PM

Very nice! Love the extra attention to detail on smoothing those....another nice subtle upgrade!

Bennett68C10 · 08-09-2012, 12:32 PM
