Um yes, it was. I did it before Subaru did blue on gold. I did before I was born. You don't even know. I'm probably changing mine though. Im sick of cleaning them all the time. I just can't decide on a new color :/

Love gunmetal because the brake dust does not show as much. But you can not use that color because you would be copying me since I definitely was the first person to use it on black.

A pic of my new 8, just got back yesterday from Japan and am probably going to give it a good clay bar tomorrow.
I'll post some pics after I clean it up.

The image is huge so there's the link.

Hey PD..how well you think that lip would hold up against a couple of cones? (AKA: think it would survive autocross?)

haha thanks guys

Zelse, CF is fairly strong and cones are fairly soft so I imagine it would just get scuffed up. I think the bigger danger would be hitting a cone and it somehow gets under the lip and then the potential of it being ripped off. But then again I would not want to find out

CF is pretty strong, a cone shouldn't hurt it, as said may scuff it up as normal marks from a cone on any surface.
