So true
I've got some free time at work just now so thought I would strip down the rear brakes. I'm going to give the callipers a lick of paint, what colour? Red or black? Will Hammerite be ok? I've got some new discs and pads as well.

Get Wickes "direct to metal" paint if you can, much better than hammerright (if your spraying for a nice smooth finish) Car staying red? Dark bumpers? If yes i'd paint them red.

Heres one I did a few years back. Had the whole beam shot blasted and then powder coated black also. New everything, even bushs. On a Corsa but same thing...
I ended up nipping out on my lunch break to get Hammerite. I got black but it's the hardened one I think and it's came up really good! It's like a metallic black/ really dark grey looks good. I was going to go red but the front brakes will be black so I'll keep them even. Only the a,b and c pillars will be red, the rest is carbon.
No problems doing this at all?
Thanks for the pics looks good! I'll get pics up of mine when I out them back together. I'm waiting for new pins for the pads.+1
