Brake Upgrade

Nice one gonna go for silver...

anyone got any help on the carriers, what colour if im not painting the calipers..

 

[skullmunki]

all teh same colour (cals and carriers) seems the norm , but i wonder what silver calipers and black carriers would look like

 

[Funkyfin2000]

can you paint the calipers in situ? don't fancy taking them off and rubbing them down as i don't know how to bleed the brakes myself, so the garage will be fitting all this stuff, il just be rubbing the carriers down and supplying them to the garage!

Just to say you were right about CRN, shocking delivery times, they seem to blame it on the zinc coating......as it has to go to the "platers" be good if they explained that to you when buying! I have had to pay an extra £15 for saturday delivery as the car is booked in Monday!

I havn't done anything with the carriers, just kinda creamy silver colour so going to let the dirt buikld up onn them i think!

When i ordered they didnt even get the order untill i sent alot of emails and phoned them up

Well ive paid £15 for delivery before 1 today and so far nothing, i will see how it goes and update, but so far the service from CRN is abismal im afraid...

I wish I had just ordered the cheaper less fancy discs off Badger Bill all his stuff came Thursday as promised

 

[dannyFR+tdi]

I thought that also, not the best service from CRN

will keep you all informed......still waiting and watching for this courier...im only about 60 miles down the road...if it doesn't come today i will be livid after having to pay £25 in postage!

 

[Funkyfin2000]

Well they havn't turned up theres a surprise....absolutly livid....checking my bank statement now to see if they took the cash out for Saturday delivery...which they have done... £115 and no brakes after a week. Awful service..... had to cancel my Monday appointment at the garage and move to Wednesday!

Hmmmmm well after quite a few phone calls, where no one rang me back and I had to chase, they agreed quite easily to give me back £15 admitting there mistake as they sent it to my work address on the Saturday after I clearly stated home address.

I got my money back and discs are now back on and look very nice! Pity the CS was so poor

Warning to others i think! Use at your peril!
