Nope, just need to take them apart and clean it all up and free the pads of the caliper and jobs a good un, only problem that someone is likely to encounter is the dam pins that hold the pads in, the sieze in solid if not maintained. Then its a case of new pins as you have to cut the old ones out!

Been waiting on an update, one of the few i follow, the split on the HT lead def wont help, i had a set of Magnecor on my old car and causing no end of miss-fire, then threw the OEM ones back on and boom, problem solved!

Sorry that would look daft and broken, only looks good when slammed on coilovers. but if you get that did it'll look good :)

Oh i forgot to mention, dont throw your old pads out yet, need them so you can push the caliper back against the new one so you dont damage the new one! also best way to clean the calipers up - i'll give you the dremel and a wire brush attachment then you just need some caliper paint and jobs a...

Insurance, buy it back for pennies, and then track it!

Just had a read over, i think i will prob go for the Red Mousse, The last thing i'll be needing is a wax, i know you get what you pay for but will prob end up with some PB Nattys Paste Wax? Whats your thoughts on the PB stuff?

Yeah thats what i'd like, Been looking at getting some Menzerna Super Finish (PO 106 FA) - Still looking at the numerous Glazes etc, What would be Best for UR Paint?

TBH i just want to take most of the swirls etc out the paint, i would love to try my hand at wet sanding the thing, but i think before i even attempt that, i will go through a good few scrap panels!
