Thanks. I would have gone with the G2 kit but it's pretty much impossible to find in Canada and US suppliers won't ship the paint over borders because of the hazardous material paperwork.

I was split between silver and black -- silver seemed too "stock" but it makes the calipers more visible, black is slightly more original but does hide them a bit.

I think a good bronze colour might get a good balance between those factors without looking too ricey.
