Just say NO to Corvette Calipers
I'll take the "Oldsmobile" Calipers please
I'm not 100% happy with the way they came out, but from 3 feet away they look pretty decent
Anyway:

Like the idea... probably would have went with the Alero lettering instead if I were to do something like this.

I thought about doing "OLDSMOBILE" along the top like how it says "Corvette" but I opted for just the rocket because there isn't enough room to make the lettering look right

To answer everybody else 
BlkTrax F-Body Aluminum. I have Corvette ones all set-up and then they fell though
Gessler23 Made them keep reading this post
heineck Thought of that too. Didn't look right IMHO
hok666 Na just get me NyQuil for the wintertime
AlbinoMonkeyRat Thanks, it was a decal mask. The color of the emblem is the stock color of the caliper. If I had to do it again (which I might in a few years) I'm opting for a soild decal. This one was 2 lines all the way around

Like jawa said you will need at least 16 inch wheels for this setup if you're wanting to do just the front brake upgrade. If you're wanting to do both front and rear, you'll need at least 19 inch wheels.
Here's a link to the how-to thread that Redog made on the Corvette front brake upgrade. It will give you more information on the setup as well as a list of parts you'll need to order if you decide that's the setup you want to do.
