Silver,
Love the calipers!
I'd like to do that, but in metallic patriot blue to match the top o the truck. Maybe they have touchuppaint to do that with.

I almost did silver instead of red, but I saw some pics of that on antoher forum, and I decided I didn't like it, escpecially with the amount of other red I already have upfront, I though a red caliper would look good.

Are you saying my tires are dirty or that my truck is clean?

Looks good. You running poly bushings all the way around? I guess they're have to be since they're red. Even new sway bar end links huh? Nice lol

Yup, poly on the swaybar/frame bushing, sway bar end links, and upper/lower control arms (both ends). Sure stiffened up the ride when I did the control arms with poly bushing. They are not as forgiving as the rubber bushings are, but they should last a lot longer.
