Thank you! It was a huge leap of faith to do this - first of all, the paint itself was $100 bucks!!!, second of all...... it's blue.

Here's the thing, all m-sports going forward will have this config, since I am an '11 m-sport 335, I figured that I'd be able to pull it off. I encourage others to do so as long as they are indeed m-sport e9x.

One tip, I brush painted the calipers originally Black (G2) about a year ago and I swore I'd never do that again, so this time around I used a PREVAL Sprayer Kit (with 2 aerosol cans) which can be found at Home Depot for about $14 and it was a breeze! Use painters tape and newspaper and go for it! The ///M decals are purchased through a guy I found on ebay who resides in Great Britain.

woot!
