| Thinking of maybe a colour change for my Brembo calipers as one of them has a scuff mark on it anyway, rather than just going gold again I might go another colour, where does these and are they normally powder coated or painted, do the brakes have to be completely stripped down for this to be done. | |

ive done byers in pink and in did greigys in red but can do pretty much watever colour you want tho! to get a good finish brakes need to be off the car, they dont need stripping down just taken off the car and can mask up the rest! | |

| I once did my own on a Celica. Used the mini emergency jack in the boot to jack her up. All went well until I put the jack back in the boot, expanded it out a little so it filled its compartment until I heard an almighty metallic twang and realised I'd made a mini volcano on me fookin rear wing. Gutted. Useless shit I am Was like a dent but other way around! | |

| What colour motor is yours Stevie? I think grren calipers look well on a black car. Cant beat red but its usually the obvious choice. I think Byers is on to something with the pink mind, only for a Scoob mind! | |

| as you have white wheels, i would go for WR blue with bespoke stickers, if stickmeup or someone like him still exists, go for brembo stickers in a different type face and a one off graphic, be origonal mate. | |

| There's loads of Brembo stickers on eBay, already been looking. Was thinking a bright colour that stands out for the calipers then probably black Brembo stickers, but think I might sort some other things out 1st before I get these done. | |
