what color are you planning on painting the calipers? i seen you posted a pic a few days ago and there was red calipers behind the black rims, they looked

did you get the new style o2 sims with the blue adjustment knob on them? you will definitely need those because your car has the newer software that the old style wont work on, thats what happened with pete's car
well craig said he had gloss black caliper paint, so i was thinking about doing that. i would love to do a BBK but havent seen any for Xi... red would be nice, or i was thinking maybe yellow or something, but i do like the blue and black theme as well..

and i got v3 o2 sims, ill open the box and check

i think the v3 is the newest and will work for you

black is nice and clean and makes the calipers blend into the car, silver just looks like clean stock. craig said back in the day if you arent doing a big brake kit, you should paint them black cuz making stock calipers stand out looks out of place, i think i agree with that, but i havent seen alot of red or yellow stock calipers in person so i cant judge
