Just personal preference for those who paint/powdercoat their sport calipers. I've seen Akebono, Nissan, Nismo, and the Nissan logo. I don't think it's more popular to do the Akebono option in any one region. To each his/her own.

When Mike was powder coating. I had him put Nismo on my calipers. He could put just about anything you wanted on the calipers.

Ok that's what I was wondering if people custom painted or if different regions got different naming.
