Well it’s been a busy weekend for me, modifying my car and enjoying the hot sunshine
Started off yesterday with a couple of mates fitting my newly acquired H&R Cup Kit along with new top mounts front and rear. By the sounds of things I changed the front just in time as the factory ones had just about had it. They practically compressed under their own weight.
Today I spent pretty much all day repainting my brake callipers. Started off with some brake cleaner, then used a Dremel to remove the loose flakes and tidy them up a little and then applied the paint. I’m pretty happy with the results and look much better than the ‘pink’ ones I had previously.
Anyway here are a few photos including before and after shots, there’s quite a bit of difference and I’m pretty pleased with the result. Going in tomorrow to have the wheel alignment and camber checked to be on the safe side.
Comments welcome
