Looks good, but you need something else red too!
Maybe a red Marauder logo or something.

I was considering using a pin striper to.come and stripe the outline on the rear bumper logo. And my intake is red and plan on powder coating valve covers too.
As for a kit, I just removed calipers cleaned with purple power and a steel brush. Then used a red scotch brite and cleaned with alcohol to ensure no trash or mositure. Then just used caliper paint from autozone, flashed paint with blow dryer and hit with a second coat let dry and put it all back together.

That's the red reflecting on the wheel. In case you were serious.

Of course I'm serious, does it not look like 2 pieces of the "pie" are painted red?

The red "Marauder" windshield visor would look good with all that other red stuff.
I was going to do my bumper letters in red, but then I realized I would have to do more red elsewhere.
