Yeah thought maybe silver but with original back lights on ph1 I thought got to go in yer face red.

Match car nice I think. Did toy with blue to go with dash but though NO!

Nah not yellow. My friend has a Calibra DTM Edition and they suit that but not with black. Silver would of been good. I was torn but just thought of back lights.

Only thing that worried me is that the nearside wheel has been rubbing against arch at top and that side had new caliper on.

It is close now but not rubbing but it just makes me think it's had some sort of bash. Worse thing bout taking cars to bits is the things you find that you didn't want to know!
 
Looks like mine now :)

Except I left the rears as they were cos it'll look a bit ghey...

Just for back and front symmetry. To be honest I did realise how small they looked until I'd painted the front. Would teach me to start at the back.

Most cars with calipers painted have them all the same though. Suppose not painting the back also draws attention to them. Also you can see the back ones quite well from the front looking down one side.
