Point # 1. He never said for what car .
Point # 2 .He never said for what size of tyre.
Like loony says . He never asked about value for money , he wanted peoples opinions on the toyos and my opinion is they are s**t in the wet.
It says he has a 1.216v clio. For all i know he could have...
Like mycougar49 says , rip it as an mp3 with windows media player then e mail it , at the other end either play it as an mp3 or re-encode back to audio using nero .
Like i said , Toyos shite in the wet , exaltos fantastic in the wet . Seeing that we live in a wet climate i know which ones i would go for everytime .
Tbh mate it isn't that hard and won't cost you alot . Give a go , take your time and keep it clean as you go and you'll surprised how good it turns out .
Just check out some local motor factors that mix paint , give them your paint code and off you go .
I had T1-S's and then T1-R's on my old 172 , okay in the dry , widower makers in the wet , absolute shite , not a patch on the exaltos which are fantastic in the wet and dry .
Who quoted you £500 plus vat ? Was it a big body shop ? Take it to a couple of back street bodyshops and get a few quotes , you'll be amazed how much the prices differ .
Imo if they are saying its because its a special silver paint thats why it costs so much they are talking b****cks , thats...

Check out your local pound shop , alot of them sell em .
Try polishing them with megs scratch x or autoglym super resin polish then you could either seal them with AG extra gloss protection or just apply some wax after the polish .
Nearly 5 years of owning 2 RS's and it still puts a smile on my face , plenty of b road driving today on my way to the Southport airshow with my holding on for dear life lol ;)
If its flaked off , then the calipers were either dirty or had grease on them . Make sure you clean them well and you'll have no problem with hammerite smooth .
