    Is the 172 Cup supposed to have a Spare Wheel?

    See unless your going on a track day or somewhere in paticular that would be worth while shedding the weight, id stick with the spare wheel, standing in the pissing rain waiting on a grease monkey for 45 minutes just doesnt shout the same appeal as spare wheel :o

    First off mate dont bank on insurance always being cheaper with age, just because you dint crash doesnt always neccesarily mean its going to be hundreads cheaper than before! If car crime hits an all time high then we all get it in the neck, people forget that un-insured drivers hitting all...

    Painting calipers

    # Think it may need several hours to dry, id do it night before and give it a good chance to dry, the callipers get some heat when driven!

    Painting calipers

    half inch will do it nicley mate, wee tip, before you do paint it dip the brush brissles in a wee bit of turpentine this will make the brissles soak up more paint and make for a more even finish ;)

    Painting calipers

    A can of compressed air (or hoover) in about it aswell incase any of the dirt makes it between the brake pad and disc it may score it.
  25. Poopensharten

    Painting calipers

    You could maskin tape the disc as close to the calliper as possible to avoid touching the disc with the paint. Id get a wire brush in about it aswell incase theres any build up off rust, itll make for a better finish aswell :p
