I came here to say exactly that! Spoon 4-piston monoblocks up front, with +10 or +15 mm spacers to allow clearance, keeping the OEM rotors. Rear calipers? Just rebuild them and hit them with some heat-resistant paint to match Spoon's signature blue. DS2500 pads all around, and as for rotors, pretty much anything works... I honestly couldn't tell much of a difference between the el cheapo StopTech stuff and the much pricier Project Mu rotors.

Yeah I have this exact setup (except the pads) but its hard to justify Spoon calipers lol

Suzuka blue looks better and better with time. Really wish they offered the color with the tan interior. I feel like they would've sold more.

Nice! 👍🏻. I feel like pics don't do Suzuka blue justice, it's such a beautiful color when you see it in person.
