Has anybody done black rims with Black calipers? Just wondering if that is too much black. Need some input..

These rims are currently at the powder coater and I'm thinking about also doing the calipers.

There can never be too much black. Haha. I've thought about it. But haven't done it yet.

How big of a task is drilling the rotors? Do they need to be removed to do that and do they have to be done by a specialty shop?

You can buy cross drilled rotors now.We cross drilled mine because they didn`t make them back in the day.Had to write the CNC program and drill them on a milling machine.Kinda big job.

ROKTMAN- so i guess I can't do it with the Dewalt? Good stuff.

AJMAG - THanks for the pic, good visual.

JB3711- I think your right about the Red. It really pops. And the New Badges I ordered have the two red Dodge Banners on them.

If the truck is accented in another color, I would do the calipers in that color.
