Just do the front in red and keep the rear drums black is my only suggestion. Bright painted rear drums is a little ricer-ish IMO.

Paint the front caliper a dark gold/bronze and the rear drum cover a matte/flat black.

Don't listen to these goons, red and black = So boring. Pink is obviously the way to go.

I kid! Red/black or dark gold/bronze would look sweetness. These guys know what they're talking about!

I dig the rims, wing looks good too. Whole thing looks nice, just gotta pretty-up those drums and calipers!

Oh, make sure to do some good prep work on your drums...

Speaking from experience, mine are rusting a little bit, but the front calipers are fine!

Im looking at getting the tokio blues from micro image about 300 for the set of four... i dont know how the roads are over where u r at but i live in los angeles orange county so mostly fast fun freeways going 80 to 100 miles per hour and i notice the stock shoks suck so in the near futuru i will upgrade to tokio blues ohh and a rear sway bar white line ajustable also at micro image good luck and have fun
