The rear brakes are a work of art! Looks ace buddy
Thanks mate
a lot more work than i thought but i'm really happy with the results so i'm gonna paint the front calipers this coming week to match the rears.
Polished the car up (again!!) today,also took a couple more pics of the rear wheels + brakes
The front calipers and intercooler and bumper grill are next on the list!

Also if anyone has any tips on what to use to clean the engine bay up i would be very grateful as i want to make a proper start on that too.
That caliper refurb looks awesome...Ive got mine to do in the coming weeks, will be looking here for inspiration!

,Definitely worth doing in my opinion.
For the engine bay I use megs vinyl & rubber care on the black plastics, any of them you can get to. Spray on, leave to soak and work it in after 5mins or so.
Any polished metal, autosol is brilliant, work it in when it's warm
Thanks for that mate,I will give it a go as soon as ive finished the couple of jobs i'm in the middle of at the moment
Well tonight ive removed the front bumper ready to fit the new front grill
I then also removed the intercooler which i have cleaned up ready to re-paint the Forge logo,Which hopefully you will be able to see behind the grill once the bumper is back on,Also i'm gonna give the hoses a clean up too.
Then it will be onto the front calipers.

Hey mate,it's just the standard one which is missing from the front bumper which goes in front of the intercooler

Oh right, thought you was changing the vented ones.
Thanks mate
Unfortunately I've just ordered some new calipers which are black so now I've got to paint them black, a little disappointed as I was drooling with envy over you're rears

Hey mate,I think they would look great in black if you put some white brembo decals on them,I think it would make them really stand out???
So tonight i re-painted the intercooler and also i removed the front badge and gave them both a few coats of primer followed by a few coats of satin black
I then gave the hoses a clean and then re-fitted the intercooler
I then fitted the front grill which i have also sealed with some 2 pac adhesive just a little on each fitting clip,Then i rubbed down and masked the calipers,then they also had quite a few coats of paint to match the rear ones,Ive left them both to dry over night then tomorrow i'm gonna put the brembo decals on followed by a few coats of laquer then re-fit the under tray and bumper followed by the wheels then that will be another job finished!
