painted my brakes while i fitted a new rear caliper as it was seized

backs went easy


front were easy until it came to fitting the anti rattle clip, such a pain in the arse!


just need to  seal them and i can finally drive it  :driver:

fitted my rota's, first time they have been on since its been painted really liking how it looks

the wheels change depending on what light they are in they go from bright bronze in the sun to almost grey



pretty pleased how the bronze works with the graphite brakes

cheers mate appreciate it, think they really suit the car  :happy2:

Been looking for some new wobble tuner bolts as these ones have become all tarnished and really ruin the wheels

Finally got around to fitting my p3 gauge after needing different software, only took around 2 months to get it from the manufacturer

Really pleased with it overall very OEM looking



Also fitted my BBS, first time they have been on since it was painted
