    It would be really neat if we could have Mitsubishi cut into them or 3000GT or even just the diamond

    Yes, I think you would get another GB filled in a hurry if you were able to get a mitsu logo machined into them, or even VR-4 something along those lines. Sometimes companys do not like using others logos due to copywrite, depends on where you go.

    You could take them to an engraver and get whatever you want.

    No, but it would definitely up the cool factor.

    Really, theres not much of a point to upgrading your brakes unless you plan on roadcourse/tracking, the stock brakes do just fine for 99.9% of people. I would put my money on most people do this for the look and want rather than the actual need.

    This^ In all seriousness, I would pay extra for the brakes not to say anything rather then XYZ. However, if that was not an option, I would buy a Stop Tech 355mm kit and pay more for the name. The reason is that its a mod that visually represents the quality of the the rest of your car. No one sees your downpipe but everyone knows Brembo for brakes even if it doesn't say Brembo. Not saying the quality of XYZ is not excellent, but it could be a source of ridicule I really dont want. We can get stickers to put on a blank caliper saying anything we want. The fact is most people dont need anything more then the brakes on the car anyway, so its just for looks. Many big brake kits dont even stop in less distance then the stockers once or twice. I want something that looks great behind my big open wheels to hide the uglyness behind the spokes.
