Afternoon NESF
Anyone know best place, or who can refurb calipers off a MK1 Focus RS?
Asking on behalf of a mate who needs his sorting out.
Thanks

Message received from ray for those interested.... There is a different guy doing it at my old place he must of gone there. I have a new website if people are looking for me www.rsalloy.co.UK not sure if that was up and running last time you were round. Link on the gallery page to my Facebook site with loads of pics and special offers on it. Also starting up plasti-coating shortly if you know anyone interested in it.

Do they just want stripped and resealed ? Is he supplying the seal kit / The piston being replaced ?

not sure to be honest mate, cars left outside and doesn't move for months, so problems with corrosion of calliper's and discs.
I think he's found a decent price for new calliper's and discs so going down that route.
