5 hours will probably be ok .I was just thinking that it'll be easier for you if you clean and paint them off the car . Personally i'd paint them Saturday fit them Sunday .
If your leaving the calipers on the car i would paint them with a brush , if your taking them off the car i'd spray them and just mask the piston up , split the caliper and pad carrier .Painting them on the car is alot quicker , but its easier to clean them off the car imo .
People prefer different clients . Some torrent sites won't let you use certain clinets . I always use bit tornado , works fine for me and all the torrent sites allow it :)
It takes a couple of hours to go dry to the touch , leave it 24 hours would be best imo so any brake dust , dirt etc won't bond to the paint . But i have seen on here somebody who painted them and drove it straight away . Its up to you at the end of the day really .
Main thing is make sure they are clean and free from any grease so the paint will stick .
If you can take them off the car its easier and clean then with some of these wire brushes , you can find them in some pound shops .

It takes 1 litre on a 172/182 but i'd buy 2 litres in case you spill any and if you bleed all the old fluid out . I usually use castrol response dot 4 .

So is there or isn't there going to be a 150 bhp GT version ?? Carkeys says yeah , Jermemy Townsend says no :S
Welcome to CS mate .
Contis over toyos for me . Toyos are crap in the wet . But i prefer michelin exaltos the best . Excellent grip in the wet and dry , but they do cost a bit more .
The car should have the remainder of the 3 year warranty , you'll have to check when it was first registered or you can call Renault customer services , it stays with the car not the person so any issues should be sorted out by Renault if needs be .
Also you should have the remainder of...
Get em refurbed , slap some protection on em and stick em back on your car . Wheels are all weather things you know ;)

Its worth having a look at eh especially if its local , plus with private sellers you have more scope to knock em down a bit ;)
Have you got a link to the one on here ? Its a fair old treck down to Brighton if its a shed !
The top one on the link to autotrader looks ok , and only £6,500 plus its in Edinburgh :) You'd have to see it in the flesh tho' obviously to see if its as good as its description .
Agree with fred , way over priced if its cat c or d . That might be the reason there's no front splitter as well due to the accident damage . It might have had more damage than just the wing and door and they aren't being upfront with the full extent of what was replaced .
Tbh mate there's...
